Not sure what to say?

Rose Annette, I just saw Ron´s obit. I am so sorry to learn of Ron´s passing. Although it has been years, I remember Ron as a good friend, very good tennis player and a core member of our "group". Wishing you and you family the best going forward

I was so sad to hear the news of Dr. Ron Larkin's passing. My condolences to his family. I was one of the first people he hired, when he became Superintendent of the New Brunswick Schools. During the 24 years we worked together, he supported the Adult HS and Adult Learning Center programs, which were often in financial jeopardy. I valued him, not only as my supervisor, but as a good friend. Rest in Peace, Ron.

Mr.LARKINS WAS MY PRINCIPAL AT HAWTHORNE He was the best principal I ever had,because of Mr.Larkins I went in the Education Field, I worked for Newark Board of Education and held 3 different positions.He always empowered his students and he had an open door policy for his office.He will be missed Margaret Barnes 71-79 class at Hawthorne Ave.Sch.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Dr. Ron Larkin was the best principal and Superintendent. He cared so much for his students, and treated us like family. Believed in all of us, and pushed us to succeed. I wouldn´t be where I am without his advice, and I cherish all the memories I have of him. Thank you Dr. Larkin for EVERYTHING!!! I know you flying high with the angels!

It was our good fortune to know Ron and play bridge over so many years. He was a gentleman, always positive, and a tough competitor. He will be missed. Our sincere sympathies to Rose and their family.

Rose, how sadden I was to hear of Ron´s passing. He was so full of life even playing bridge which I did once or twice! My husband passed on January 18th of this year. I´m so grateful to have my family, as you must be, too! Joan Rossiter (Manahawkin)

Big loss for the many friends he had. Great Superintendent who cared about kids and staff. He will be missed. Joe Homoki

My condolences go out to the Larkin family. It was my privilege to serve under Dr. Larkin in the New Brunswick school system. His heart was as large as his personality. He will be greatly missed.
