Sad to hear of Ron's passing. I met Bro. Ron through the Alpha Phi Delta Delaware Valley Alumni Club in 1983 when I started to get active. I only was in his company a short time one night. Some months later, in was walking down Passyunk Ave. and I saw him. I approached and reintroduced myself and he remembered me and treated me as if he knew me 50 years. I then understood why he was so well liked by everyone. Terrible to lose such a nice guy. He will be missed. May he rest in peace.

Ron and Stef have been our neighbors on Howard Street for 30 years and we would like to offer Stephanie our heartfelt condolences we just found out today. We would always see him tending his plants outside and decorating for different holidays and always being helpful in the neighborhood. He will be sorely missed as a happy face and a good man and an excellent neighbor. Our hearts go out to Stephanie and the rest of the family. We just wanted you to know our thoughts and prayers are with you and if you need anything feel free to contact us. Sincerely, Robin and Curt Arbitman

So sorry to hear of Ron's passing. We knew Ron for 50 years. He was a person who was ALWAYS there for you, always the first person to ask if you needed anything. Unfortunately we are here in Arizona and not able to come back and express our condolences in person. But Stephanie and family, we want you to know we are thinking of you and your family and wishing you love and peace.
