I knew Ron for almost 30 years. Worked with him at the Kansas State School for the Blind. I'm glad we got to go out to lunch this summer after he had recovered from his stroke. I wish I had a chance to see him again. He called me a few days after we had went to lunch in August and said don't forget me buddy. I never will Ron, I never will.
