Not sure what to say?

I had Mr Lax at Mountain View back in the late 70's. I remember his sense of humor and how he made math class fun. Thought you might want to know the impact he made on so many people in the course of his career and life. I remember him well. My sympathies to the Lax family. I enjoyed reading how much he did for Genealogy. He would have loved the Genealogy library here in Salt Lake.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Family of Ronald. we are cousins and about 1 1/2 years apart in ages and Married the same years. I remember when you all came to Tn to visit. we always had a good time together

I just found out and wanted you all to know your in my thoughts and prayers.

My most favorite vacations as a teenager were spent with Ron and Donna Lax. Vallerie and I are best friends. We would load into their camper on top of Ronald's truck "Dorovasash" and off we would go.

We are so sad to hear of Papa Lax's passing. His patience, love and wisdom always shone through his sometimes unbearable teasing. He was always so funny and he always made me "check in" when I would see him. He and Donna raised 4 beautiful daughters with one of them (Sandy) being a long time friend of mine. I wrote this poem for you Sandy but for all to enjoy. Love, Virginia, Rylan & Toby

Ron Lax, my grandpa, was my hero. He was one of those guys that had a huge presence wherever he was. He touched others and had an impact, even in passing moments. People were drawn to him easily. But most important to me, he was always there for me. Whether it was convenient or not. Whether we lived in the same state or not. He made the time and necessary arrangements to always be there at my biggest life moments. I can't think of anything greater a man can give to his daughter or...
