I just wanted to tell the family of Ron that my thought, prayers & heart are with you in your time of sorrow. Ron was a wonderful man & anyone that had the priveledge of knowing him has a richer life because of it. I loved Ron's sense of humor and his enormous heart.He was definately one of a kind. I learned about family love more than anything from Ron and I learned this by watching how much he whole heartedly loved his family. I am sorry for your loss.
Much love & sympathy,
Dawn Kelly & Family
