I am so sorry for the loss of Ron.

He was one of the first people who talked to me after my family moved into the Stuart Woods apartments in Herndon, and he remained a good and caring friend.

Harley was the first canine friend to welcome my new rescue dog, Connor, last year, and was unoffically known as "The Ambassador of Stuart Woods."

We miss Ron and Harley more than I can describe.
