I spent many times hunting with Ron and my dad Herb, along with shooting sporting clays where Ron wouldd ask for a "fresh bird". I will never forget his voice and mannerisms. Him and a couple others made me a hand made plaque when I got my first deer. He hunted at my house where he wanted to get a last pheasant. That was years ago. I got my first pheasant about the same time. Ron gave me his, so I had them both mounted in a fighting position. I will never forget Ron.

To the Schleppi Family:
We were younger than Ron but knew of him through the friendship of Dennis but mainly Dean. I´m sure the Lordier family on Harlem Rd was on Ron´s regular delivery route. He was a well liked man and deservedly so. We send our most sincere condolences to the Dean, Karen and Dennis and their families.
Ron truly led a wonderful life in which he leaves so many family members to remember and carry on his legacy. May he rest in peace. May each of you live in peace.
Nancy (Lordier) & Gary Postlethwait
