Ron and I were friends and classmates growing up in Newkirk. I'm grateful to know that I will see him again someday. My prayers for God's strength and comfort for his family during this time of loss. Ron was always one of my favorites.

Ron truly was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song...
I'll love him forever.
Carrying on the dream.

Bar none, Ron was the best man I ever knew in my life. He gave of himself more than any person I know of. He left footsteps on the sands of time. this poem by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow describes him for me:
A Psalm of Life
Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
And things are not what they seem.
Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art, to dust returnest,

Pat, I am so sorry for your loss. In the early years you guys were such an inspiration. When you and I went to Hanford I still remember and love meeting your family. God Bless your and all the kids. I have never forgotten. Ron was a wonderful man. The Lords plans we do not always understand but they are always for a purpose. Love Cathie Toller (Cathie and Fess Fessler)

Our hearts stopped at the news of your passing. Our visits were short, but you made us very comfortable with your thoughtfulness and care you showed towards the our family. Our sincere prayers are with the entire Johnstone family. May peace be with you through this difficult time. Joe and Elva Martinez,

Dear Pat and family, I don't know if you remember us--we were in the same babysitting co-op when all our children were little--at least Ronnie Jr. and Jessica. It was such a surprise to meet again when Krisiten and her family moved to Atascadero. Please accept our deepest sympathies in the loss of Ron.
We still remember how baby Jessica didn't like me but really liked Dave!! Love to you all.
