Sometimes people come into our lives and and at the time you just can't imagine the effect knowing them can have on you personally. Ron was that kind of person. He was so kind, understanding, and always there to listen. I have lost count of the times his advice has served me so well. His outlook on life was amazing. I will long remember Ron for the fun times we had, the dances we shared, his sense of humor was second to none. He was a man that truly loved his family, his church and his friends. I will miss him for the rest of my life. Heaven is truly the lucky benefactor!!!!!

Ron,
I was there when you spoke to each of your children on the phone and in person. I was there and saw the tears running down your cheek. I saw the light in your face and on your mind and your final welcoming into the house of the lord, I reflected on what I knew your were thinking. I felt the almighty preparing you for your journey.
As I held your hand all night saturday before you passed into heaven. I know now what the true meaning of love and forgiveness is. During your conversations with the lord on your difficult journey, I heard many beautiful lessons toward this difficult thing called life. What I didn't know then, but I do know now is that we must be forgiven before we are called home to the lord. We must be forgiven for all of the large and small things, the petty and meek. We must be forgiven of all of the things in life that weight so heavy on our hearts and in our minds.
Thank you for helping me see this reality in a very special way. I will cherish this beautiful gift you have left with me.
Ron, I will make ever second count, I will be a better person, husband, father, brother, son, uncle and mentor so help me God.
Thank you for giving me this shinning light. Rest in peace.
