How can you choose words to describe a man like Ron? Integrity and hard working are the first that come to mind for me simply because those are the values he said to focus on ever since he gave me my first job and the opportunity to build a memorable career. Not a whole lot of people can say they started at the bottom and finished working with the Safety Safari Crew. I was particularly close to Ron because of his belief and faith in those that worked at the track. I will always have wonderful as well as positive memories of Ron and will easily share those memories on occasions where I revert back to those days of, “Remember when…” The 1320 and Ron Bracken will always be my definition of a quarter mile…
With a heavy heart I say, “Peace be with the entire Bracken Family…”

I wish I knew the magic words to say, to take away the pain and hardship the loss of your loved one has brought into your lives. I don't have those words, but please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. I cannot pretend to know how you feel- because your grief belongs to you - but also know that the loss of such a precious, person as Ron saddens us greatly.
