Ron & I went through Swift Boat training in early 67 and then served at the same base in Vietnam for 1 year. We had maintained email contact for the past few years and I knew he was devastated by the loss of his wife.
Rest in peace Ron. You were a great shipmate.

I don't remember if I served with Ron on SWIFTBOATS the name sounds familiar. I was in Vietnam April '68-'69 at Catlo, Cosdiv 13. I want you to know you have my condolences. I to am 63 years old. My prayer for you all is that he was born again and so are you. May the God of all comfort be with you at this time. Jim Hoffman, Oshkosh, WI
