I am so sorry to hear one of my best friend has left us. He will never be forgotten for sure. Ronnie was one of the best to have as a friend. We met way back at Rudys. We worked close together and became really close. I will always remember when he took me to car shows that I had never been too before, we went drag racing together and raced. We both bought HD cycles and rode lots together. So many more things like this I could say but I wont now. I want his family to know my heart is with all of you now, and these memories I have inside me, will be with me forever. Him and Ann were always very good to me and I am so thankful for the time we spent together, sharing anything we had. We were very close and were friends forever. I did have to leave MI. for work and then we did not see each other much after that, only when I went back home in Michigan to visit family and friends. I will miss his smile and laugh, but can see it still.
Love to all of you

Words cannot express our deep sorrow for your loss. Ron was a kind, sincere and gentle soul who enriched our lives by just being the genuine person that he was. His simple, basic loving ways were an attraction that nobody could deny. And because of his deep fondness for animals, we also witnessed their natural attraction to him--instinctly feeling his peaceful nature and sense of trust. We would like to extend to you, Ann, and your children and grandchildren, our condolences in a loss so grave. He was truly, one of a kind--the best.
