I’m so sorry to hear of Ron’s passing Char, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.
I still laugh about the time he and several other club members waved Mike and I down on I-75 by flashing his badge out the window of a pickup truckI thought we were in serious trouble and of course Ron was laughing like crazy as he got out of the truck.
God’s blessing on you and your family!

Ron was a great man and a true model and inspiration to other Deputies.

I’ll never forget after he retired he stopped by the office to say hi. He was kind enough to bring me several souvenirs after a recent trip he and Charlotte had made to Pinehurst in North Carolina (where the U.S. Open will be played again, this year) knowing he and I had talked about that historic place previously and how we both hoped to visit it someday.

God bless you Ron! You are and will be...

Very sad to hear of Ron’s passing. As a young road officer, Ron was a police mentor to me. He taught me the principle of “Policing is not us against them mentality but rather we are them”. He taught me to make friends with those in the community we serve. I valued his advice and it made my career so much better. Rest in peace my friend.

Ron used to stop by my family's Christmas tree farm every season. He is one of the main reasons I became a deputy. Great man.
