To Deb and Family - I just want to say how sorry I am for your loss. Ron would venture up to the Gunflint trail and stay at my home at times. He was planning to come up next week and stay with me and my wife a couple of nights. I considered him one of my very best friends and was shocked to hear of his passing. When staying at Voyageur I would drive up there and play cribbage with him a couple of nights a week. He also came up years ago to help us frame our house. He was one of the nicest and caring person I've known and will miss him greatly. When my wife was diagnosed with cancer he would call every week and check up on us which helped me through her illness. Unfortunately with covid19 I will not be able to attend the celebration of life at the Turner Hall. Again I am sorry to hear of Ron's passing and please take care. Dave Schudy
