     Ronald E. Hiitt, 65, of Worcester, passed away Sunday, July 5th, in his home surrounded by his family after a 7 year battle with lung cancer.

He was born in Worcester, the son of Ernest and Mary (Doherty) Hiitt and graduated from St. Peter’s High School and he attended Worcester State College. Ron worked for Peterson Oil Company for many years before retiring due to illness. He was a United States Navy veteran.
