Dear Carol-
My deepest condolences to you for your loss. Ron was a great man and the love the two of you shared was unmistakable. We all had great times at Haagen-Dazs throughout the years.

Dear Carol,
For 30 years you kept your marriage vows of "for better or worse," Despite the gravity of Ron's diagnosis,you showed by your continued care of his medical and personal needs, your devotion and abiding love. You are a shining example of what is right in this world. Knowing the truth, be at peace my friend.

To my sweet cousin Carol,
Frank and I send you our deepest most heartfelt condolences. From the day of your wedding, to his diagnosis, to his death last week, you loved Ron with a passion rarely seen. You supported and nursed him though a long and agonizing illness. You were the love of Ron's life, his best friend in better times, and his strength when he had non. May God bless you and may he rest in peace. My prayer is that he was met by Buzzy, Helen and MIke, Sam and Rose and is FINALLY comforted by a loving family in heaven. Love from the Pacific Northwest,
Margi Ann and Frank

Ronnie was so fortunate to have Carol as his wife, who was the first person to diagnose his illness. Carol nursed him through all his physical transitions. We would all be blessed if we had someone to care for us as Carol cared for Ronnie. Love to Carol and Ron.
