Ronald A. Frankel

Ron was an unforgettable person that gave character and humor to co-workers at ARL. He will be missed.

Heartfelt condolences to Ron's family and friends. I met Ron in 1986 when I went to work in the VISTA office; with John Scully, Domenic D'Angona and Susan Harrelson and PB (private joke). We were a small office where everyone got along really well. Friday afternoons at Ledo's for pizza and beer. After a couple years we all were no longer together as an office, but Ron visited my office frequently, just to say hi and catch up. After Susan left ARL, he and I would meet Susan for lunch at...

My sincere condolences to everyone who knew Ron as a friend. A deeply unique person with many interests. I mourn his loss. He suffered no fools. May his memory be a blessing.

Ron's jovial spirit was always a welcome relief, especially while working at HDL/ERADCOM/ARL. Even when he fell off a ladder & badly injured himself, he kept his humor. He endured many, many months of recuperation, & still kept us laughing with him. His humor (not always the typical kind) is what I'll miss. I wish his family & friends comfort.
