Thinking about Ron and what a great guy he was. We would always get together, in Kennebunkport, around his birthday. We were both in the insurance business in Portland. Ron was an honorable competitor. We also both served on the board of MECA. Many comments about Ron being the best Finance chair we´d had. Last time we had lunch, Ron mentioned he was dealing with cancer, but never let on how serious it was. He was so proud of you and his daughters, Katie. I am so sorry you have lost...

Katie, I am so saddened to hear of Ron's passing! I will always remember how he mentored and helped me when I transferred to Dallas Commercial Risks in 1977 and especially how supportive he was when my Dad passed away later that year! My families thoughts and prayers are with you!

We are so sorry to learn about Ron's passing. I'll cherish fun memories when our girls were playing field hockey and we sat together chatting it up! What a great smile he had with love in his eyes for his beautiful wife and daughter. Please accept our deepest sympathies.
