We walk on this earth just for a short time and often have far to go.
Only a special person can see the little things in life that later become the most important. A gentle touch and a comforting word to a stranger is usually only extended by a special person who can see beyond the facade and a face. Special people with a kind heart will forever remain alive in our hearts.
Ron was one of those kindred spirits and I was privileged to have known him. He has forever changed my life. In loving memory, Hanny
