Not sure what to say?

I loved Ron and Ruth. Learning of their passing saddened me. I learned so much from Ron, but especially admired his ability to go to the heart of any issue. (and) Everytime I park in the City, I remember Ron parking that big station wagon in North Beach, but that's another story. My condolences to the family.

I had the pleasure and honor of knowing Ron while attending many of the SFHAC Design Review meetings. I'm so sad to hear about his passing. He was always so kind to me and I really liked hearing his comments about each project. They were so thoughtful and intelligent. I will miss him very much.

A wonderful generous man who was a pleasure to know.
Condolences to Ruth and your family.
May his memory be a blessing.

Ron was a great guy! I worked for him doing deliveries at the House of Flowers when I was in college at USF. Condolences to Ruth and the family

Dear Ruth, Barry, Melanie and Renee,

I was so sorry to hear of Ron's passing. Your family has always been dear to me and to my family and I have many fond memories of Ron like helping us build a sukkah in our backyard and helping me pick out flowers for our wedding. May his memory always be for blessing.

With much love,
Ruth Auerbach

Dear Ruth,

Please accept my deepest condolences and share them with your children and grandchildren.
Ron was the foreperson of the 96-7 San Francisco Grand Jury, on which I served. Since then our paths crossed at SFCCGJA annual meetings and the Planning Commission. It was always both a joy and a comfort to see him.
"May his memory be for a blessing."

I grew up with Rons family. Ron introduced me to The San Francisco Sound when I was 12. with his son Barry. Ron took us to weekly Jefferson Airplane concerts at Playland. Ron later helped me to follow my heart about my career. He helped me develop my dissertation topic in 1984, counseling boldness in my research topic.
My brief involvement in government was in emulation of Ron.
For a time, Ron was a second father for me, and I will miss him all my days.

Ron Miguel gave his heart and mind to the City and its neighborhoods. As a leader, activist and member of so many committees/ groups/ organizations, his insights were always listened to---and helped lead the way for the betterment of our society. His long and fruitful life accumulated much institutional knowledge, which hopefully rubbed off on others who served with him. but definitely set a model that others should emulate.
