Ron and I started at juvenile court on the same day 13 yrs ago. He was a true, loyal friend who had a story for everything and a wealth of information lol. Such a dear friend gone way too soon! He will be dearly missed. RIP brother.

I used to work with Ron at the Sedgwick County Courthouse. He was the kindest, meeting me with a smile and a conversation. My condolences to his family and loved ones.

Early on we knew Ron as an adventurer who was always on the lookout for good deeds to be done. Whether piloting his raft on the creek, working for the Butler Sheriff's Office or the Sedgwick Courthouse, he was always an immensely popular presence whose disarming smile and stature kept many difficult situations from getting out of hand. He was especially well - suited to his
appearance in the "Home on the Range" movie: displaying a timeless sense of intense focus and genuine interest.
