I just learned of Ron´s passing. I worked for Ron and was actually married in his back yard. He was instrumental in my career path and learned so much from him. I was blessed to have called him friend and he will be missed by many. RIP Ron.

Your Dad was one of THE BEST! We met in Phoenix and started trading back and forth- he'd buy from me- and I'd buy something a week later from him. Ron had a GREAT eye- he understood the subtle nuances that made something incredible. Many house picks we went on. I am saddened by the news and I will miss him. Rest in Peace My Friend- I hope the junkin is good up there!

Sargent Ron you were missed in Phoenix when you retired from your security gig at The Phoenician. A big guy with a big smile, quick wit, fun demeanor and talents. Ron played in a rock band - everyone´s dreams, he lived it. Loved the " Police Line Don´t Cross" guitar strap he used on his guitar. Ron had many talents and he was a conversationalist if you were trusted and he thought of you as a genuine person. Worked with Ron " Joe" for 20+ years in Valley - I tell you it´s a loss Ron will be missed, sympathy and prayers offered to the family. Rest in Peace dude!!

We are so sorry for your loss. We just met him in March when we moved next door to him and Jodi and honestly we fell in love with him from day 1. He was just so pleasant to be around and had lots of stories he would tell Drue and I and was just so interesting. I would send him and Jodi and Randy sweets that I baked and meals that I made and he was always so thankful and would always tell me how much he enjoyed it. We also enjoyed helping him with some of his projects if he needed help. He would just ask and we would be there to see what we can do. It is so sad that he passed away so quickly cause he truly was a special person. We miss him terribly but we´re blessed to have met him. Please accept our condolences. Drue and Mary lou
