I met Ron as a new basketball official. It was only a few years ago. In those years I learned what a outstanding human being he was. Many thanks to him for his good advice on the court. My condolences to the wonderful Keefer family.

Very sorry to hear of Ron's passing. We both live in the same neighborhood and I worked with Ron at the Navy Depot. Ron was referee at a lot of soccer matches, including a couple our son Raymond played in at Cedar Cliff. My sympathies to all Ron's family.
