I want to add my heartfelt sympathy to you and your family as you will be going on with your lives without the companionship of Ron until you meet him again. Heaven is a richer place because of his being there. I am so used to hearing your names together as you have had songs played for me on WPEL as well as for so many others-from Ron & Bev Root. You have blessed many with your ministry of dedicated songs. May God bless you now, Bev.

Dear Bev and family,
My prayers are with all of you. I know the Lord will comfort you at this time. We know we will see him again. He is now rejoicing with his Lord. We will not be able to get to the funeral.
Love to all, Barb Carpenter
