"My love and prayers....Petro"

My wife and I were introduced to Ron and Lynne back in 1997. They lived in a very nice neighborhood and so did my young family. We were looking for a bigger home, as our family expanded, while Ron and Lynne were looking to return to their “home” of Riverside after a brief 30 year stay in Buena Park.

Working as the treasurer of the 55th Poly Reunion, the phrase "quick wit and attention to details" is one I can attest to. Always accurate and always clear on detail, he was one of the best. Ron was a wonderful example to me and other members of our reunion committee and we certainly had a fun time. He will be surely missed. Love you Lynne.-Shelby

Ron...You will be missed terribly..You were the greatest cousin that anyone could want..Love you much...Barbie

Our love.

The Cal DGs, knew Ron as Lynn's steady from Stanford and the two of them never wavered. We have shared lots of good times, laughter and moments of shared sorrow and joy. Calling to lend support a few weeks ago Ron yelled from the next room while I was talking to Lynn "Swedish Pancakes!"...then he got on and reminded me of our sharing a cooking session in Washington DC (he student, me teacher)...That wonderful engaged sense of fun was there to the last. We will miss Ron very much and look...

rest well ron. your classmates thought highly of you. my condolences to the family.
