We are so shocked and saddened to hear the news about Ron. Our hearts hurt knowing we'll never get a chance to see him again. We send our love and prayers across the many miles. We hate that we are so far away. We know how painful this time is however we pray that the many wonderful memories you have of him help ease some of the pain and bring a smile to your hearts. We love you Kathy, Chris, Elaine, Amanda, Ashley and the rest of the family. May eternal light shine upon Ron and may he rest in peace with our Lord.

Kathy, I can't explain how saddened I was when I received your call about Ron. He was truly one of the people who "come into our lives and leave footprints on our hearts". It is so hard to imagine not hearing his voice or seeing him carefully document each planned doctor visit in his journal. It was a pleasure to know him and he will be greatly missed.
