Condolences to Ron's wife and family. I met Ron and his daughters almost 50 years ago and admired him for his bigger than life personality. He raised his family in a loving household and will be sadly missed by all that knew him.

I met Ron through our board of directors for the Renaissance at Meadowlark Condominiums. We became fast friends and collaborated with many condo issues. We enjoyed many "security meetings" on Friday afternoons, where we often solved many of the worlds problems over a bottle of wine. Ron will be missed.
