I am saddened to learn of Ron´s passing. This morning, I was recalling an excellent dinner I shared with Ron and Bitsy, at their WS home. Ron grilled the best steak I have ever eaten! I am also remembering the times that Bitsy and I shared, as former colleagues at Old Town Elementary. My heart goes out to Bitsy, to her sons and grandchildren.
