Dear Robbie, Chris, Lori Beth and Linda,

My heart hurts for the loss we've all suffered. I love my uncle Ron and his wonderful, beautiful, always fun to be around family. My memories of us all together at the shore, building sand castles and playing tag are only a few that I hold so dear to my heart. Thank God he has you three beautiful children to carry on his personality, smile and strength...I love you all!

Ron was my uncle and he was one of the dearest, kindest men I have ever met. I have many, many fond memories of Ron and his family, summer's in Stone Harbor and Thanksgivings together. He will have a special place in my heart forever. May everyone who loves him be granted peace as he now also has peace eternally.

Linda, Chris, Robert & Lori Beth:

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in your time of grief. May the years of memories bring you comfort and joy. I count it a great privilege to have known and worked with Ron. Your husband and father was a man of integrity. His colleagues in the insurance industry as well as legal community respected him for being a “man of his word.”

Ron came to our house for dinner when he was looking for a home in Tampa. I worked with him at Met Life and USAA. He was a man of fine integrity and I appreciated his humor and love for his family. I remember going to his daughter's baptism and during the years he shared with me the wealth of love for his family. He had strong morals and values that were duly noted by all who knew him. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I worked with Ron and Rob at AAA. I have never met a kinder man and will always remember the way he would greet me by first name, rather than just a "hello." A person as nice as him is surely in a nice place.

Linda,

May God Bless you and the kids during this time. Ron was a gentleman in every sense of the word. He was a good friend, an inspiration to those who knew him, and so very proud of his family. I know my loved ones in heaven will take his hand and be blessed for eternity, as we who took his hand here on earth were blessed and honored to know him.

To Ron's Family:

I have only gotten to personally know you briefly because of the visits over the past few weeks, but really already knew you through Ron's words. He loved you all and smiled when he spoke of you. He was looking forward to the birth of his first grandchild. Ron was my friend and someone I truly loved and respected. God's mercies and love be to you all, and may his grandchild be born with his characteristics of love, resolve and spirit.
