My first memory of Ron is from high school. We could see how much he loved my friend and classmate, Diana. Life took us in different directions after school, and my next memory was to learn of Diana's passing. One thing I know is true: Ron loved Diana and their children 'til his dying day. Rest in peace, dear Ron. May your children and friends find peace, knowing that
Ron and his beloved Diana are together again.
