To all the immediate and extended family of Ron - I just found out about the passing of Ron and I am so shocked. We would have spoken on a daily basis over two years but, like everything in this commodity business our paths went different directions in past 6 months. Ron was one of the absolute honest guys and always professional and funny to deal with. It was a pleasure to know him and the world is a sadder place with his passing.

Mr. Ron, thank you for all of the great memories over the years. You, your family, and I, had some really great times together. I will always cherish the great times in my heart. I'm going to miss making you laugh. Especially, making you laugh about my family stories. Mr. Ron, you treated me like family since day one...and I thank you for that. I really appreciate you for all of the encouragement, support, friendship, and hospitality. I know that you're in heaven at peace. And telling God all of the adventurous stories of your life.

I met Ron while working in the commodities bisiness early 2011. He has always assured me that he has my back if anything closed via my introduction- well- if I close I will bless his family as if you are anything like Ron, you are all a class act! I was blessed to know such an amazing human being. Just a couple months ago I said to him this in an email : I can only wish that I could be in heaven to be your angel as well as all others...well Ron beat me to it! I can only hope he is now my angel in heaven watching over me- God bless all of Ron's family & freinds XOXO Dana Ayala
