Ron was like a brother to me...we were the "3 Musketeers" (or maybe the "3 Stooges"?)...always together as children and always having fun. I wish I could have said goodbye before your life was over. You were one of the best people I have ever known and I will always miss you.

Ron,
It is so hard to believe you are gone. You were wanting to come home
and mom, dad, and i were so looking forward to seeing you, sharing
laughter, just having you around. I was so little when i first met
you, you came home in your Naval uniform, so handsome. Even then, you
always teased me, made me laugh and i loved it when you took me on your
motorcycle and yes, rides in the red convertable. I reember the last
time i saw you, the smile of happiness on your face, your laugh is
something i will never forget. You are so special to so many people,
family would flock to our house when they would hear of your visits,
and we all miss the jokes, the stories, the laughter and your teaseing.
I hope you are looking down and know how much i love you so much, i still cannot believe you are gone. I was
so looking forward to seeing you. Our hearts ache so badly and there is
not a day that will go by that mom, dad, and I won't think of you.
Please know how proud mom and dad were of all your accomplishments, you
are forever in our hearts. AS the cards keep coming in to mom and dad, you touched so many peoples lives where you grew up, so many friends that will never forget you. I love you so much, your sister Christine

Ron you were an amazing person. I was continually impressed with your accomplishments and you told great stories. There was almost nothing that you couldnt do and I always held you in the highest esteem. We never failed to get together and waste time at every opportunity, often getting called away by our families to come home and get back to work - LOL. We joked about that stuff all the time. I'm really going to miss you, Pal. I'm so sad that this happened but I smile every time I think of you.
What a great friend.
