Ron and I were both in the same clinic at Ft Bragg in 1968 when we first entered the Army Dental Corps. He was a good friend. I was sorry to read of his passing.

Dr. Ron is still remembered often and missed each time a dental appointment is made and attended. A number of Ron’s patients have gone to another fine young dentist, Jonathan Beaugez, who is just down the street. Dr. Ron, you will always be missed and never forgotten. ❤

When we moved to the Gulf Coast in 1974 we needed to find a family dentist. Dr. Ron, as he soon became known to us, came highly recommended by a neighbor. He quickly became a friend as well as our dentist. We will miss him! Char, we were so sad when Glenda called to let us know about Dr. Ron. Please accept our deepest sympathy.
With love,
The Staff and Management of Bradford O'Keefe Funeral Homes

Charlene & Family: Prayers for Comfort and Prayers for Strength. It is really hard for me as well. Ron accepted me as an extended family member with love and total respect. Please know that He loved his family with a special kind of love for each one of us. He always answered the phone with, "Jimmy, well how are you doing". I am going to miss the physical sound, but it is a definite soundbyte in my mind forever. We will miss visiting him on our trips. God Bless you all as you remember this great man. Love to all from the Spencer Family in Kansas. James (Jimmy) Spencer
