I just learned of Ron's passing. Truly a wonderful person and friend. First met Ron in 1974 when we worked together at NHTSA in Baltimore and stayed close for many years after. I was truly blessed to be able to call him a friend.
May God bless you.

Hi Ann, I was so sorry to hear of Ron's passing. I had recently spoke with Ron and enjoyed hearing about his plans for making the best of what ever challenges came his way. He was very upbeat and appreciative of his family and friends. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Ann-
I only had the opportunity to work with Ron for a couple years at NHTSA but he was always so kind to me and welcomed me into the office. He was well-respected and did such good work for the states. May he rest in peace.

Sorry to hear this I really enjoyed working with Ron; he was a gem. I will always have fond memories of the time when he took a group of NHTSA folks out to one of his favorites crab houses in Maryland; a good friend and great colleague; he will be missed

Dear Ann,
I was saddened to hear of Ron's passing. Although we hadn't been in touch since his retirement from NHTSA, I have fond memories of working with Ron at headquarters. We worked together for several years - as a matter of fact, I recruited him to headquarters where he made significant contributions to financail management of NHTSA's State grant programs. He was a gentleman with a fine sense of humor and professionalism. I can still see him laughing & blushing - always with a smile on his face. May he rest in peace and my sincerest sympathy to you and your families.
