Ron was a gentleman and just a truly wonderful man. He and Arlyn were regular members of my wife Ginny's Sunday School class. It's been a genuine privilege knowing him. May he rest in peace.

My family met Ron & Arlyn Cook in May 1999, when we attended St. Catherine´s Episcopal Church. They were so excited when they found out we were fellow Canadians. They took me under their wings when my former husband passed away. They helped me in so many ways. They will always have a special place in my heart.
