To the Pine family, my deepest sympathy goes out to you at the time. I worked with Ron for several years at Copley & he was the most gently & kind person you could have known. Always trying to make you laugh or smile. I was very shock to hear of his passing. God Bless you all & never forget his smile & zest for life.

To Kathy and Brian and Fern -

My thoughts and prayers are with you through your loss. Ron was such a good friend. He was always the "Life of the Party" in TSL and loved by everyone. He will be sadly missed by all those whose lives he touched.

Ron was one of the most gentle of souls. He would give you the shirt off his back. I worked with Ron for 5 years and laughed everyday. I was shocked to hear of his passing but glad to know that he will be entertaining all in Heaven. God Bless you and your family.
