Pop Pop, i love you and i miss you, i know it's kinda late to say anything, but i want to let you know that i miss you, and i am still sad that you passed away. i would give anything just to have a last day with you. you were the one that held this family together. we struggle without you, at least, i do. i try to be strong, but it hurts knowing you are not physically here anymore. but i know you are still with us all. i will never forget those times we had, when you were happy, sad, angry, all of that. i cherish those moments, and i will always love you.
-your grandson, Jacob

Carol, Jason, Amanda, Andrew, and all 6 grandchildren my heart goes out to all of you. Nothing I can say will change anything, but we lost a great part of our family. He loved you all so much! He loved all of us. He became a part of this family 44 years ago! He loved his family pizza and beer. And above all his Yankees!!! And this is how I will remember him. R.I.P Ronnie. Always loved never forgotten.

Ron was a great friend , neighbor of mind at the old Branford Manor in the late sixth. He was fun to be with, full of energy.
I cannot believe his passing so early with full of life for all who is around him.
To his remainder brother and sister I want you all to know that the Mayo's send you all our strength, support and prays for Ron who we truly love as a neighbor growing up into adulthood, friend forever. I wouldn't say bye Ron but the good lord with bless us all to live again.
GOD BLESS you Ron for great childhood fun growing up.
The memories will be cherished forever.
