On behalf of myself, my father Roy, my uncle Win we cannot tell you how sorry we are for your loss. Mr Stevens was the best. I was just a young kid working in the warehouses and he was just a great man.

My father is sad today, Ron was a key part of our business and we have so many great memories.

Thanks to Dave for contacting us. Our company was a family and we wont forget each and everyone who made it possible.

Ron was one of the best. Thank you for sharing his life with us.

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I had the pleasure of working with Ron for many years both at Schiller Inc. and Heartland Distributors. He always had the ability to make you smile and make you feel that you were important to him.

He had a gift and was truly a special person.

Always loved talking to Ron about candy and snack promotions when I was at Schillers Cadillac. He was so proud of his house and looking at the ships go by. I was blessed to call Ron a friend.
