I worked with Ron on the Blue Line (Plastics Dept) at Oscar Mayer. I was a college kid and working there during the summers. He's was always super nice to me, and I'd like to call him "Chuck Norris" from time to time because he looked just like him. Great, great guy.

I worked with Ron over a couple of summers back in the late 80s in The Blue Room of the OM Plastics Dept. He was such a nice guy, especially since I was only there as summer help. My sincere condolences.
