I worked with Steve at Treasure Island in the late 80's. He lived for Scouting.

 

Taken from Unami Lodge Website:

Were shocked and saddened to report that Steve Ranjo, our Council Vice President for Program, and Assistant Camp Director at Resica Falls Scout Reservation, was tragically killed in a car accident Saturday evening.

 

According to press reports, Steve, age 40, and his father, Leo Ranjo, age 88, were traveling to Huntington, West Virginia, to visit an ill family member, when two teenage boys from Baltimore, returning from freshman orientation at University of Charleston, crossed the grass median strip on Interstate 79 in West Virginia and struck them head-on. All four were killed on impact.

 

Steve, a Life Scout from Troop 499 in the old Philenape District, rose from clerk to Camp Director at Treasure Island. As a youth, Steve served as the Lodge Chief of Unami Lodge, a Section Chief, received the Vigil Honor and Founders Award, and later served as the Lodge Adviser. For the past several years, Steve has served as the Assistant Camp Director and Business Manager of Resica Falls Scout Reservation. Steve spent over 20 years serving on camp staff, mentoring hundreds of others. In 2011, Steve was selected to serve as our councils Vice President of Program.
