There's no one quite like Ron...always caring, polite, willing to help in any way he can, and a loyal, best friend. We were so blessed to have you as our neighbor & close friend, supportive and calming in times of controversy. JR will definitely miss your phone calls & I will miss listening to two good friends just talking their talk.

Dear Diane,

Thinking of you in this time of grief. Ron was over with his grand daughter on his ATV just over a week ago and we had a good visit.\

I was shocked and very sorry to hear of his passing.

All the best,
