Eight long years since you passed. Your dad missed you so much. It has been one month and 7 days since he left to be with you. I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around the fact that he is gone. However, I know that he is at peace and so happy to be united with you. Please take care of each other until we meet again. Love you both!

I just learned of Rons passing this morning from his brother. My most sincere condolences to Rons family. I played hockey with Ron for several years as we were growing up. I ran into his brother today and had a few laughs. I went inside and wrote Ron a note and when I brought it out to give to his brother he informed me of his passing. Ron was a great guy and someone you wanted on your team if you were the goalie! Again condolences to all of his family and loved ones. Rest easy buddy!

Lisa, I was greatly saddened to hear this saturday, I had been trying to touch base with everyone again but we didn't seem to connect. I have such fond memories of the times at the house, the pits and the pond. Ron was a true friend, this will forever leave a hole in my life.

Boots,
You have been my best friend for over 40 years. I have a lifetime of stories and adventures from your short time here that should carry me through. You had a unique way of getting people together that wouldn't have done so if it were not for you. You didn't care about the size of a persons wallet and you had no tolerance for knuckleheads, that left you surrounded by quality people. We all thank you for that. It is true you were the life of any party. Those that didn't know you before it were sure to know you by the time you left. I watched in awe of that many times. We'll have to raise a toast and tell your stories to fill the gap.
I am sure you figured a way through the pearly gates and into the VIP section, eating shrimp cocktails with the great ones. Well save me a seat my friend. It will be a while before I get there but I am looking forward to making fun of you while you make sport of me for all eternity. I love you my friend, my pal, my santa. I already miss you!

Will miss him lots.

Dear Lisa and Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you during these difficult times. I knew Ron, through my brother, Kevin. He refinished all of our hardwood floors when we purchased our home. His work was impeccable. From then, I would often see him shopping at the Home Depot and there he would always make sure to say hello and deliver the biggest smile ever. May you find comfort in the wonderful memories of Ron and the many lives that he has touched. May he rest in peace. Sincerely,Sharon Aubin

The world just lost a great smile, real laughter and one hell of a genuine man.
There was never a time with Ron that you could not help but laugh. You had a special way of making you laugh…even if at yourself!
Just one of my favorite Boody-isms: “…bout time to smarten up, Big Man!”
We should all learn from Ron to enjoy life half as much. We are thankful for knowing you, and you will be missed greatly by us all. Gone, but NEVER forgotten.

To Ron's family,
Ron took care of the building where I own my store in Lenox. He did a few repairs in the store as well. But on his own time he would just appear and fix the door handle, carry in a heavy box we were struggling with, and was almost embarrassed if we made a fuss. He just made us smile when he was around. He worked hard, but never made a fuss or complained. He was committed to his job. He also spoken so lovingly about you Lisa.
My truest respect for you and Ron's family,

Dear Lisa and family,
Even though Ron's time with us was cut short, he left us with amazing memories that can never be replaced. I remember the first time I met Ron. I immediately said to myself, he's a keeper! He gave me a sense that he was a warm,loving,and a genuine person. And boy was I right! But what impressed me the most was the relationship between Lisa and Ron. Putting the two of them together created such a dynamic couple, they always went out of their way to make sure people around them felt loved and taken care of. I will always remember Ron's smile and I will never forget how Ron made Lisa smile. I love you both and thanks Lisa for introducing me to such an amazing guy. He touch so many hearts including mine.

I can remember meeting Ron for the first time on a playground at St. Mark's school back in the 5th Grade. We were at recess and got into a fight over some silly playground game. I had to jump just to reach him. We both got detention and were forced to sit next to each other. It was back in the days when our desktops lifted up so we could store our books and I had a bag of gum. Chew-Man-Chew to be exact and I shared it with Ron and we became buds all through middle school and high school. We were all bummed when he left St. Joe. He was a great golfer and hockey player and was always the biggest guy out there. Tough on the outside but a great friend once you got to know him. I miss those Glory Days and we'll all miss Ron but remember him fondly.
