I don't know what to say except that I am so very sad that Ron has passed away. I loved him very much. He was such an awesome man. Enjoyed his company very much, talking with him, playing pool, playing cribbage (and thank you Ron for the cribbage board you gave me months ago. Know it meant alot to you and glad you gave it to me)and it will be cherished forever. My condolences go out to his family. May you Rest in Peace Ron..... I love you and will miss you dearly.
