Ronald Duane Kidman

I had the pleasure to meet and get to know Ron while I was employed at Sparton Electronics from 1979 to 1992. As a senior technician I was assigned to test and troubleshoot the SSQ-62 sonar transmitter which he had designed. Ron was very kind, courteous and a great engineer. He was always there to lend me advice and help when the troubleshooting got tough.
I shall always remember him and the times we had.
To the Kidman Family you have my sympathy.
God Bless Ron. You did good.

Dear Kidman Family:

May the wonderful memories of your dear husband and father outweigh your sadness.

My mom and I had the pleasure of seeing your parents while we were driving in the old neighborhood this past summer. Your parents were both out working in the yard, so we stopped and talked for well over an hour. It was a true joy to catch up and share some stories with your lovely parents.

Thinking of all of you.

Mrs Kidman, Duane, Darold, Diana, Denise and Devin -

My heartfelt sympathy in the passing of your husband and father. He was a kind, patient man who never hesitated to help someone in the neighborhood. I always admired his calm demeanor and the Ford Mustang that he cherished.

May his spirit live on in your hearts forever. Sincerely,

So sorry for this loss. I shared an office with Ron in the early 80's at Spartan. Best example of hard work, intelligence and ethics I've ever experienced. Job well done Ron!

So sorry to hear. Lots of memories of our childhood days and all the rides he gave Darold and I to the YMCA.

We're so sorry to hear of Ron's passing. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Ron at Sparton; he was a fine engineer. R.I.P. Ron!

Dear Mrs. Kidman, Darold and Diana,

Please accept my heartfelt condolences on Mr. Kidman's passing. He was a wonderful and kind man. God bless your family.

Yours Truly,

Cathy (Hanson) Keller and family
