Ronald Yoakam

Ron was a good friend to me for many years, though we unfortunately lost touch several years ago. I'm very shocked and saddened to hear of his untimely death, and my deepest sympathies are with his family and close friends. May he rest in peace.

Our short time knowing Ron was a blessing, in many ways. Although our friendship was brief, it was deeply meaningful. We are heartbroken and will miss him, tremendously. Our prayers are with his family as they deal with the sorrowful loss of this wonderful man.

I just happened to see Ron's obituary and was shocked to hear of this sad news. I have fond memories and stories about Ron -- his time spent in Northland HS Room 129, rehearsals, and a few other events he and I experienced. I had heard that Ron advanced into the world of flight and was very, very happy to hear of his success. As time passes, we lose contact with former students, but hope that the time spent together within a student/teacher relationship had a positive impact on his life. And, to his family members . . . I am very sorry for your family loss. Please accept my deepest sympathy.
