To the family of Ron Owens:
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I worked with Ron at Lifetouch when he first came there. He was a very kind and gentle man and will be missed by many people. I am the person who took him blueberry muffins to work from his son. I miss seeing you Ron and asked where you went when you transfered to another WaWa. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
