It is still shocking to know you have left this world. I know you are in a much peaceful environment without sorrow, guilt, and pain. May god bless you and keep you in his glory. You will be greatly missed. Rest in peace Ron.

Hi Ron,

Although I did not get to see you for awhile, I know that you know that you were loved dearly by all of us. My mother is heart broken that your gone as she had seen you grow up with my brothers since the age of 7. Please comfort her mourning heart with your spiritual touch. I will remember your distinct laugh as my brothers drove you crazy and all of you had fun together growing up. As our Lord Jesus Christ has you in His kingdom now, I know you are now in touch with another special person who loved you so too, our grandma Amalia. I know both of you are now watching over your loved ones. I'll always remember how you called me "mija"and your visits during Xmas and Thanksgiving. Rest in Peace Ron. xoxo

Thank you for being the best uncle, you watched me grow up and loved me an Scarlett unconditionally. Thank you for congratulating me on our new baby on the way. I'm going to miss you dearly uncle Ron and I'll see you again soon in another life. RIP

You will never be forgotten Ron. I will always remember all the times we spent together. Specially when we got that flat tire at the mall. We would have been stuck there for hours if it wasn't you. R.I.P
