RIP, Ron Broward

A Davis institution:
Ron Broward, a Davis businessman who co-founded the popular Sudwerk microbrewery and devoted himself to finding and identifying remains of missing U.S. service members in the Korean War, died May 8 of liver failure, his family said. He was 80.

...Mr. Broward, who received the Purple Heart and other military awards, was an unpretentious man. He enjoyed mowing his lawn to relax and watching the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Chargers on TV.

"But his true love was the MIA project," his wife said. "He could go into his office and spend eight hours doing that. It was his passion."
