Ron was my cousin by marriage, and a good Christian man. I consider him a modern day Job, who stayed true to The Lord through more health trials than most humans, and lived his Christian testimony daily. I know that Ron received the cherished words from the Lord, "Well done, good & faithful servant". I pray for comfort, strength, healing, & all of The Lord's blessings to Sharon & all of Ron's extended family members & loved ones. God bless & keep you each in His loving hands.
