You were one of my best friends Ron
Wish You Were Here was the song you played for me on your guitar, how sadly ironic that title is now...

Alyssa and family,

It has been nearly 50 years since I last saw Ron. We were classmates at the Jewish Day School in Allentown in 6th grade and we were good friends. But when my family moved from Allentown in 1975 we lost touch. I remember Ron as fun to hang with, sweet and a good friend. I pray that his memory will be a source of blessing and comfort.

Ronnie was a student of mine at the JDS and so gentle and sweet.
I remember him asking if the "globe" compartment in the car was named that for the maps it often held.
I am so sorry for his loss. I know he will be missed .
