Ron Fowler was very good friends with my father, Bill Sheridan. They worked together at ENMU for many years. They traveled around Southeastern New Mexico and West Texas; staging some great photography shots. Ron was so funny, kind, and talented. My deepest condolences to his brother J B, and Ron's beautiful daughters' Twila and Tyla. May God comfort and keep and bless your family in this time of sorrow. Please accept my most heartfelt condolences on the passing of your father Ron Fowler.
