Not sure what to say?

My thoughts and prayers go out to Ron and his family in this time of sorrow. I worked many years with Ron, and one couldn't ask for a more kind and professional person. He always had the best interest of the business and employees in every aspect of his work. God Bless.

Ron,
My last entry in your Guest Book...Oh Ron-- I miss you so deeply...as I struggle through these days and nights without you, I realize that our unrelenting series of losses continues on and on and on...and my heart aches for you.

I know I need to remember... remember all we had together... And we had so much...so many blessings...most especially our girls... Kelly Elizabeth, Caitlin Marie, and Erin Grace. We chose their names together...they are OUR girls!
Our...

Dear Ron, Collen, Kelly, Caitlin, and Erin,
Ron, it's hard to believe that you have been in heaven more than a month. So many miss you in so many ways. You have many ripples in so many lives, more than you ever knew. You beautiful family misses you so much; but they will get through this because of the love that surrounds them and because of all the love they have in their hearts and family.
Ron, there are so many great memories I can't even begin to list them all but here's a few......

Ron,
It breaks my heart to see the girls so sad. When I look at it in the bigger picture I can see how much you meant to everyone who knew you. This is a credit to you because you were such a great guy. When I moved to Texas you were in the beginning stages of your condition. When I moved home, the disease had progressed and it was very hard for me to watch. Sometimes I wish I hadn't gone to Texas so that I could have enjoyed valuable time here at home. I know, however, that if I had...

Dear Ron,
I truly cherish the time that I was able to spend with you. I never had the courage to tell you in person how much I thought of you. It felt like I was saying good bye, yet it was too soon. Your strength, kindness and courage are values that I can only hope to emulate. I think that you were the greatest person that I have ever had the pleasure to meet. I look forward to seeing you again. There is no doubt in my mind that you are sipping wine, playing chess and enjoying life...

Colleen,

It has been an honor to come into your home, your lives and your hearts. To have been able to help you in such an unfair situation is indeed a great blessing. We have overcome many hardships and helped each other over more than a few hurdles. You and Ron were able to use these last two years to your greatest ability, each giving so much so the other could cope better.

Try to remember all the fun we did manage to have. Despite it all, in spite of it all. Life is...

Ron, Every time were were together I always went away thinking what a great person Coleen married. Down to earth, clear thinker, and loyal husband and father. You and Coleen truly compliment each other providing a very positive environment for your wonderful children. I only wished that we lived closer to spend more time together. By the way, I took an empty wine bottle from your wine celler so that I can display on top of the cabinet in my northwoods cabin in Wisconsin. Every time some one...

Dear Colleen,
I am sending you love...
Colleen,it truly has been astounding...all the dove-tailing that has occurred between your Ron and my mom.It is been 'the six-degrees of separation'. Incredible similarities,though very different diagnoses,Ron and my mom linked us in ways and with a depth that was unfurled before our eyes. And Colleen,I do believe Ron met my mom September 18th.Afterall, they,without ever meeting thought of ,asked for and prayed for each other.
I will continue...

Dearest Colleen, Kelly, Caitlin, and Erin,
On September 18th Aunt Kay called me at school to inform me of Ron's passing. Of course I was deeply saddened and couldn't concentrate on my work for the rest of the day. After school I went home and prayed for the repose of Ron's soul and began thinking about J.T. must be welcoming Ron into Heaven. I then began to reminisce by recalling your wedding day. The thing that immediately came to mind was the song "Wind Beneath My Wings" As I was...
