Ron was always so nice - and fun to kid around with.

I am deeply sadden to hear of Ron's passing. He was a good friend that I met at the VFW many years ago and I loved to listen to his stories. He always made me smile and was there to listen and cheer me up when I needed it.
His family and friends are in my thoughts and prayers. May God bring you comfort and peace.
You will always be dear to my heart "Tex". I'll miss you.
God Bless,
Chrissy

From the John Fahnestock family, we are sending our condolences. He was always a happy face in speaking with my mother and dad while enjoying their efforts of butchering in their shop. Take care and God bless and know that he will always be in our hearts.

Ron was such a great supporter for my family when my brother ( Dave Baughman) died 10 years ago. Ron was a friend of Dave's and his support was greatly appreciated. My family's thoughts and prayers are with your family's. I'm sure you know he was a special person.
