Ron, You took a troubled kid off the streets and you tought him a trade. You gave him a sense of self worth when it was truly needed. I'll never forget that it was you who gave me so much and asked so little. You'll truly be missed by many. Sincerely, Rick

I was saddened to hear of Ron's passing. Ron was my first sweetheart in 1964. We had some wonderful times together. My thoughts and prayers are with his Mother, sister, children and grandchildren. Kathy Serra

My sympathy and love goes out to all the family. The loss of a child is the hardest thing anyone will ever have to endure, we all expect to lose our parents,but never our children. My heart goes out to all who knew Ronnie. His children,grandchildren,sister,but espically his mother. I will miss Ronnie very much as he was a great man, and a very good friend of mine.I know Ronnie and my son Shane are looking down on us now,and will always be our guardian angels. God bless. Love, Rhonda

I grieve for our children and grandchildren and all the wonder- ful times they will no longer have with you. My heart breaks for the tears and pain I have seen already. We had made plans to spend time together as a family on your boat...thanking the Lord for letting us become good friends again. I will forever cherish the love and laughter that we all shared our last Christmas together... so much to look forward to. Only the good times,of which there were many,will keep you alive in my heart forever. Till I see you again. Love, Lynn Love, Lynn
