Ron was a great person to know. He always had a smile on his face when we spoke. He was a person you wanted around, a diligent worker, thorough in all he did. You will be missed by so many and never forgotten. Thank you for your service. Condolences go out to your wife and family.

Ron always had a smile and friendly countenance and was a devoted life mate to Mary. He will be missed at class events next to her. It makes me sad.

The best husband to my sister, brother in law to me, uncle to my sons, hero to us all. He loved his job as Crime Scene Investigator, was one of the best, served his Country in Vietnam, victim of Agent Orange, loved traveling and winning at cards, life of the party. Man we will miss you Ron, RIP your work on earth is done.
