Ronald S. Kates

I grew up in North Hollywood with Ron, and we were great pals for years. We went to school together, rode bikes together, spent hours talking about our futures, and we had no idea at that age what was ahead. I regret that we didn't stay in touch throughout our lives. He had a great sense of humor and was a great friend for many years. I would appreciate a family member contacting me at [email protected].

Always remember he as a very open minded man.

I will always always remember Uncle Ronnie ( and crazy Aunt Adrienne) for the memorable times spent together and for being such warm and supportive friends of my Dad, Larry (RIP), and Mom, Michiko. I recall Ron as energetic, humorous, amicable, intelligent, and eager to find adventure of one type or another... he was also the one who caught me at age 6-7 yo in my mom´s VW at the steering wheel! I still recall our families taking a few trips together and enjoying one another´s company. ...
