Ron Rivera, a Coach of the Carolina Panthers Football Team, and His Family

Ron Rivera, a Coach of the Carolina Panthers Football Team, and His Family

Ron Rivera, who is frequently nicknamed Riverboat Ron has dealt with American football coaching for more than 20 years and he currently works for the Carolina Panthers. He earned NFL Coach of the Year title twice, in 2013 and 2015.

Date of Birth: January 7, 1962

Zodiac Sign: Capricorn

Clearly, Ron Rivera didn’t become a coach in a flash and, first, he was a player of the Chicago Bears from 1984 to 1992 and even won Super Bowl with them in 1985. In 1997, he took the post of a coach for the first time after signing a deal with the Chicago Bears. Having also worked for Philadelphia Eagles and San Diego Chargers, Rivera became the head coach for the Carolina Panthers in 2011. In 2015, he helped the team to win the NFC championship.

Ron Rivera is a family-oriented person and though he dedicates much time to his career, he always finds some time for his parents, siblings, spouse and children. Let’s see who the closest people of the famed coach are.

Eugenio has already retired, but he was a commissioned officer of Puerto Rico in the US Army, where he served for 32 years and made two tours to Vietnam. Because of Eugenio’s military service, the family had to move pretty often and that’s why, Ron got his education at military bases around the world. By the way, Rivera considers his dad to be his biggest hero.

Ron Rivera mother

Dolores Rivera (mother)

Dolores was born in Mexico, but she immigrated to the United States and settled in Salinas Valley, CA. There she got acquainted with her future husband, Eugenio at an USO event. Ron calls his mom the most influential leader in his life. Moreover, Dolores is also his hardest critic and always gives pieces of advice to her son as she knows football pretty well.

Michael or simply Mickey was older than the famed football coach. He ran pizza stores in Reno, Nevada, together with his wife Rosemary. The man was a big fan of Rivera and watched any game of his sibling. Michael died in 2015 after a long battle with pancreatic cancer. Ron misses Mickey very much and still wishes happy birthday to him on Twitter every February 28. Rivera also shared that Mickey was absolutely selfless and always worried about other people not himself.
