Ronald E Garry

Ron was a very special man with the best combination of tough and tender- we will miss seeing him on Christmas.

my heart goes out to Joanne after her brother and now Ron. losing a sole mate is the test for any one.

39 1/2 years ago, the Mattses met the Garrys. How lucky we were to have the perfect neighbors. 33 years ago, as Richard was leaving this life, he told Ron and everyone else that we could not have had a better friend and neighbor than Ron.
Thank you, Ron, for four decades.
Much love,
Noreen and Megan

Sorry to see such a great craftsman and animal guardian leave this world.

Ron was one of first to welcome us to the neighborhood. This is what you might see on any given morning. Our labradoodle Rocco would stand in front of Joanne and Ron's driveway looking for Ron. If he was there, they'd run at each other, wrestle a few minutes, Rocco would steal his hat and then give him bunches of kisses. Other mornings, the same scenario played out on the front porch. Those were also the coffee cuss and discuss mornings and we really miss them. Thinking about him, we miss the great smile, the many kindnesses of a good neighbor and his respect and love for all creatures. His name is engraved on God's hand and there is a dove hovering near and of course, God has a dog to befriend him.

Well written obituary. I thought I was the only person who had javalina in my shop visiting with me.
