Oh, how we will miss Ron and his love for life. He was an easygoing, caring and loving person. His family meant the world to him – his grandchildren were his pride and joy. You fought the good fight, Ron. Rest in peace.
With love, prayers, and heartfelt condolences to his loved ones,
Bob and Brigitte McKay
Uncle Ron, you always made me laugh. I know God called you home so that you could take out your dentures and read to all the little children. Now they get to enjoy your humor. Rest in peace knowing that you were loved by so many!
Love,
Lynne

It was 63 years ago that I first met Ron. We hung around together with the “Gang” from church. When I got back from overseas Ron took me in his new convertible with the top down and the heater on to get pizza. I had never heard of pizza before that. Of course we had to go about five miles away to get to a pizza parlor.
I alspo remember a Labor Day weekend when Ron, Art Puls, and I went to a park for the weekend in his dad’s old truck that he used for deliveries. As we were leaving to come home Ron drove around the same area twice before we finally told him how to get out of the park.
Such fond memories. Thats what friends are for.

We are thinking about Ronnie’s family and the loss that has been felt by each one. Our prayers go out for God’s comfort and love during this sad time of adjustment for all of you. Ronnie will be missed by those who knew him and his memory will forever live in your hearts. Love, Ann and Jane
Dear Nadine and all the family ~~ You continue to remain in my thoughts and prayers during these difficult days. Not only am I saddened at the loss of Ron, but also that distance prevents me from being with you. Bill joins me in sending our love and fond wishes for happy memories and better days ahead.
