Mrs. Burgess, Donna, Jesse and Sarah

I am sorry about the loss you all share at this time, I am sure that he is in a greater place now where there is no longer any pain or suffering. His fight here was not in vain as he had his family with him along the great race. May the love and memories you have be your greatest gift. Many prayers and blessings for your family.

Chris,Sarah, Jesse and Donna,
I am so sorry about your dad passing away he gave cancer his best shot but that diease is so hard to beat. The last time I saw him was at his dad's memorial service and he was not feeling good then but came to say goodbye to his dad.
Kathy this is hard losing an only brother and you have been through so much these past 2 years but joy comes in the morning and things will get better.
I shall miss communicating on the computer with Ronald and am so glad he spent all the time he did getting the family website on line and printed out for all that were interested. He did alot of work and I as well as he did added alot of pictures to the site.
He was a quiet man but very caring and he shall be missed.
God speed my friend and cousin and may you rest in peace now and not be in pain anymore.
love your cousin,
Janice Burgess-Hall
