Early life edit

Ronald Milton Mottl was born in Cleveland, Ohio, to Miroslav Václav Josef Mottl and Anna Hummel, a couple of Czech descent.[3] His father, an immigrant from Počaply, died from chronic valvular heart disease when he was 11.[4][5] His mother, born in Pittsburgh to parents from Kvaň and Mýto, remarried to Václav Schovánek from Kladno.[6] Mottl graduated from Parma Schaaf High School in 1952 and later was inducted into the school’s athletic hall of fame. He attended the University of Notre Dame for which he played baseball in 1955.[7][1] He served in the United States Army Reserves in 1957.[citation needed]

Career edit

Mottl was a lawyer, and served on the city council of Parma, Ohio from 1960 to 1966[8] and the Ohio state legislature from 1967 until 1975.[citation needed]

Mottl served four terms in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1975 to 1983.[1] A conservative Democrat, Mottl was an ally of Ronald Reagan's legislative agenda.[9] In 1982, Mottl lost the Democratic primary[1] to Ed Feighan, thereby losing his seat.[10]

Mottl returned to local politics, serving on the Parma school board from 1985 until 1986, and as president of the school board in 1986, until he was elected to the Ohio House of Representatives, where he served until 1997.[1] He was also an unsuccessful candidate for mayor of North Royalton, Ohio in 1999.[citation needed]

Personal life and death edit

Mottl had four children.[9] Ronald Jr. and Ronda are from his first marriage and Ron Michael (Mickey) and Amanda Leigh are from his second marriage to Debbie.[9]

Mottl died on October 13, 2023, at the age of 89.[11]
