My fondest memory of Ron is him dancing with a broom at one of my mom's "Mexican" parties. He was such a blast and the life of a party. He knew how to make me blush and I loved him for that. You'll be missed.

I'm going to miss Ron's smile. He always looked like he was up to something...and he usually was.

I had the pleasure of working with Ron and Fran at Mt. Diablo Medical Center for many years. Ron lit up the Radiology Department. He was a kind and compassionate man and I will never forget his kindness during my Dad's final days. He always held my hand while I patiently waited for test results and always had encouraging words. I am happy to have such wonderful memories of this great man.
My last visit with Fran and Ron were at Emil Villa's in Walnut Creek and we shared old memories and ended the visit with hugs. His sense of humor was amazing!
Peace be with you dear friend...

I have wonderful memories of Ron. Stacy and I were a handful I'm sure. You always made me feel like the other daughter in the family. Thanks for the memories. My love to you Franny, Dena and my BFF Stacy.. Love, DeAnna Campbell

Ron was always the best person to sit by at a dinner party making everyone laugh while rolling our eyes. He loved all his girls and sons and enjoyed sharing great stories about them. I am going to miss you Skipper...Love to Fran and the family. Dayna
