Ron is a very special person and I am so glad he was a part of my life. I know he is with the Lord Jesus right now and he is beyond happy. Sue, I hope in some way it will give you comfort to know he isn't suffering anymore and he is simply waiting until you meet again. I pray the Lord will comfort you in your loss and know I am always here for you too!!

Sue, I'm thinking of you and your family. I know how much you are going to miss Ron, but know that he's not suffering anymore. I'm sure he's making everyone in Heaven laugh the way he always made us laugh. I know he found God, so he's doing just fine now.
