Leadership & Community Service

​

• PACE Enterprises — past president, the highest position he held with the organization

• Monongalia County Board of Education — past president

• West Virginia School Board Association — past vice president

• Suncrest United Methodist Church — past trustee and member of the Church Council

For Ron, service has never been limited to a boardroom. He has participated in mission work throughout West Virginia, across the United States, and internationally, including numerous mission trips to the Dominican Republic. His mission work has included helping with local projects, distributing food, teaching Bible school, and working alongside families and communities.

 

Ron is also passionate about supporting young people and the organizations that help them grow into responsible, capable adults. He has supported youth activities involving 4-H, FFA, Boy Scouts of America, and youth mission programs.

 

When he isn't working or serving his community, Ron enjoys spending time outdoors — hiking, fishing, hunting, boating, and relaxing on Cheat Lake with family and friends.

Most importantly, Ron is a father who understands that the decisions made by local government directly impact the future of our families. His family includes Missoury (Lytle) Wolfe, Dakota Lytle, Marqueza Lytle, and Lilibeth Lytle.

 

As a candidate for Monongalia County Commission, Ron is focused on smart growth, better infrastructure, public safety, responsible government, and protecting the quality of life that makes Monongalia County a great place to call home.

 

Ron believes public service is about more than holding office. It's about showing up, listening to people, helping where you can, and leaving your community better than you found it.
