I am deeply saddened by this news. Ron was a great guy and a dear freind. He and my dad had lots of great times thru collage and beyound.i loved hearing there never ending stories. I had the great pleasure of working with him and also being his Freind. He was a funny and kind man. I am sure Richmond was waiting for him and the two of them will prepare for there next adventure.
