My deepest condolences to Ron's beloved family. I was a classmate and friend since we were just kids. His thoughtfulness, gentleness, kindness and generosity to everyone he knew were innate and beautiful traits . He deeply loved his family and everyone who knew Ron knew his grandchildren were the world to him. May his gentle soul Rest In Peace. I will always hold his friendship close to my heart.
