Ronald Raymond Ruel

Ron was implicated in two of my "firsts": He styled my hair for my Junior prom and, 50 years later, began coloring my hair. Yikes! What a time-span we shared. I'll miss my monthly visits and gab fests at
Nepi's. Rest In Peace, dear friend, finally you are at peace.

Ron, my brother Paul's partner, was always a welcoming host when we came to stay, even giving up his own bedroom for the two of us. He was a wonderful support for Paul, as was Paul for him. We will miss him. Our hearts now go out to Paul.

A STORY WITH TEARS. i don't even know were to start. I was 17 years old working at Edward Nepi's .You and Mike came walking into the shop for the first time, I did not know how much my life was about to change then . You had been there while I was growing up, and still there when I DID grow up!!!!.. You were there for Birthday's, my Wedding ,We had great day's and some bad, We even lost each other for awhile,(We couldn't admit that we needed each other then) a lesson was learn. We laugh , cry ,and we even made promises that we even kept. I hope you knew how much you meant to Benny and I. Thank You for all the year's and time. When I look back on my life in the year's to come, YOU MY FRIEND will be one of the chapter's that end's in happy tears .We miss you .Love Elaine and Benny

Uncle Ron, thank you for loving us like we were your own family. Even now, I can hear your voice and infectious laugh. We will miss you tremendously and our lives are better having known you. Until we meet again.

All of us who have known and loved Ron are going to miss him and his wonderful laughter. He has always been so kind, generous, and welcoming. It was a blessing to have celebrated many holidays with Ron. He has brought much joy to our lives. I send all of you my love and condolences.

You'll be greatly missed old friend. You were the heart and soul of our little community. Thanks for being the good person you were in our lives.

I remember hearing stories about his mom, Michael, Michelle and all of Ron's other loved ones each and every time he cut and colored my hair from the 1980s through the early 2000s. His eyes would glow and sparkle with the telling. A good and generous man.
