Ronald R. Sutherland

My deepest condolences to Cyndee and the rest of the Sutherland family. I had fun working with Ron at Harry Martin Chevron and loved his stories of his racing days. When my racing hero, Dale Earnhardt, passed away, Ron autographed a "Desert Rat" photo and trading card of himself and gave to me saying "I know it's not the same, but maybe I could be one of your racing heroes" - it will remain one of my prized possessions. Rest in Peace, Ron. And say 'hello' to Dale for me.

Just wanted the Sutherland family to know you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Helena is my sister-in-law.

Ron was a mere 23 year old when he moved in 3 houses down from our house on Diamond. He is, and always will be, affectionately known as Turkey #1. I am forever grateful for so many fond childhood memories of going to watch him race the Desert Rat or ref at The Road Runners hockey games. He was a pretty cool cat. I got my love of old cars from him and I drove a 66 Mustang for 14 years. Thanks to Ron for ALWAYS fixing it! He is with his mom Ella now who I also loved dearly. RIP Turkey.

Cyndee, Helena, I just moved back to Arizona and was looking forward to reconnecting. I am SO sorry to hear about your loss and will really miss knowing Ron is there with you. My clutch went out so I don't think I can get to the service. I do hope you are comforted by the knowledge that Ron was well loved and well respected by everyone who knew him and we are here for you when you need us.

Ron, my life has been richer for having had your family in it and for your humor,...

Ron ~ both Jim and I value the friendship and memories we have of you. May God bless and comfort your family and loved ones.

You are so missed. Thank you for always being my friend.

Remembering the good times at the Riviera MH Park. Our thoughts are with you, your Vagabond friends.

Rest in peace, my friend. I'll miss you. Dad's got you a couple of match races and a drum of nitro on the other side.

My deepsest condolences to Ron's family. I have a lot of good memories of Uncle Ron and I am sure he will be missed by many.
