While in school, Ron excelled in UIL, One Act Play, track and football. He started all four years on the varsity football team, playing on both sides of the ball, earning All State Honors. After graduation, Ron joined the United States Air Force.
In 1977 he married Sharon Duke from Terral, Oklahoma.
Ron was known by many names: devoted husband, father, grandfather (Nonnie), son, brother, doc, Dr. Ron and true friend. He had a passion for helping people. This passion is what led him to his career in chiropractic medicine. Dr. Westbrook graduated from Parker University in 1994 and taught chiropractic technique to all under classes at the college. He opened his business, Health Innovations, in 1994 in Decatur, Texas. His love and compassion for his patients made him stand alone as the best chiropractor in this area. They will miss him greatly.
Throughout his life, his work ethic was undeniable. Whether it was carpentry, working 2 to 3 jobs to support his family, putting himself through college, or just lending a helping hand to any friend or family that needed it, you could always count on Ron to be there, no matter what.
Along with his many other accomplishments, Ron was a published author. In 2012, he wrote the book, “Choices”.
Ron enjoyed dancing, trying new foods and restaurants, going to the movies, trying to be funny, sports, spending time with family and most of all being “team Payton”. He will always be remembered for his love and devotion to his friends, family and patients. Our hearts are comforted knowing he is now in his eternal home wrapped in the arms of Jesus, his dad, mom, brothers and Megan.
He is predeceased by his father and mother, his brothers, James Westbrook, Alan Robinson, Mark Robinson and daughter, “gorgeous genius”, Megan Westbrook Holt.
Ron is survived by his wife of 49 years, Sharon Westbrook of Bowie, granddaughter, Payton Holt of Bowie, brother, Eddy Robinson of Bowie and sister, Rebecca Compton of Hurst along with many nieces, nephews and extended family.

He is also survived by nine grandchildren and a growing number of great-grandchildren, all of whom were a tremendous source of pride and joy.

During his military career, Buddy and Lucretia traveled extensively, spending time stationed in Germany, Okinawa, and throughout Europe, as well as many locations across the United States. These years created treasured memories, especially for his son, whose fondest memories include traveling through Europe and visiting castles while Buddy was stationed overseas.

Outside of his service, Buddy loved the outdoors. He enjoyed hunting and fishing and had a deep compassion for rescuing animals, always offering care to those in need. Above all else, Buddy deeply loved his wife and patiently awaited the day they would be reunited.

We know Heaven is celebrating, as Buddy is once again with his beloved Lucretia, who preceded him in death on May 13, 2020.
