Not sure what to say?

I have been thinking about Ron a lot. He was an actor who had to deal with obesity which helped him in his acting career bit also was something that caused him harm.

After his weight loss surgery and his multiple surgeries to deal with issues caused by weight loss his acting opportunities lessened and his health suffered.

I wish I could talk to Ron today to let him know how much he was loved and how valuable he was to others.

I pray that he is at peace and...

I'm so sorry that we lost such a great actor at such a young age. Really fell in love with him in Varsity Blues also in John Q. He will sadly be missed. My heart goes out to his fiance, and the rest of his family. Love & Miss you.

Loved you man and your character in Not Another Teen Movie. I never knew that you were "replaying" that role of a lineman who suffered from concussions, and trying to please your over-bearing coach from a previous movie. RIP

Specially when he put a pause to his acting career to take care of his beloved mother.
