Just a short note to mention that we all still miss Ron, up on "The Hill". Our golf league is not quite as fun as it was with Ron.
Rest in Peace, Ron.

Dear Natalie,
I am so sorry for your loss. Ron was such a bigger than life guy who brought laughter and joy to those around him. He was also a devout Catholic and was a role model to many. He fought the fight and kept The Lord at his side. He will be greatly missed. My concern now is for your healing. Please let me know if I can help you through this. God bless you and your family. Ron will always be with you.

Dear Natalie and the rest of Ron's family,
I only knew Ron for a short time, and will miss his smile and wit. He is now free form the aguish of his struggle with cancer. Now he will be with his loving and forgiving God, and his savior Jesus Christ.

Thank you God for taking Ron and wrapping him in your love and peace.
Most of us will never know what my cousin endured during his last months but, with the help of God and the love of his brothers and sisters, Ron was made comfortable. To the end, Ron did it his way!! Here's to you Ron! I'll love ya forever:)

It was a fantastic pleasure to know Ron, even though it was for only two short years.
We golfed together at Erie Golf Club, and, every time we all saw him, he was as smiling and as happy as can be.
Rest in Peace, Ron. Everyone up here on "The Hill" will miss you.
