Ron and I were classmates at Macomber for our last two years there in 1960. He was a really great guy and I know that he will be sorely missed.

I worked with Ron for many years at Chrysler Machining plant. Although he was union and I was management, I found him to be sincere,honest, and trustworthy. He was a true credit to his family and to the Chrysler Corporation.
