When you come to the edge of all the light you have known and are about to step into the darkness,

Faith is knowing one or two things will happen..

There will be something to stand on or you will be taught to fly....

Go with God.

Ron was a wonderful person that was caring, kind, and compassionate. I was delighted to have him for a cousin. He was a genuine person that enjoyed loving his family, his friends, and the beauty of life. He will never be forgotten and always deeply missed by everyone who had the priviledge of knowing him.

Dr. Olson and family,

I was one of Dr. Olson's youngest patients in the late 60s and early 70s. I am so sorry to read of the passing of Ron. How sad you all must be. As a parent of three, I can't imagine the heartache you feel. Please know you're in my prayers. God bless you all.
