Ron was one of the people that made working at Sears Westside a source of fond memories. Many a Sox game and Friday night card party added to the joy of knowing Ron.

Dear Ron,

As the greatest Chicago White Sox fan you saw the 2005 World Series won by our White Sox. I worked with you at the Sears Westside and the Sears in Skokie too. And we had some great times bowling at Broadview blowing and other great times too. And now you are at heaven with all of our Sears family



God bless you from,

Lenny Gwiazdzinski

there are no words to describe the loss the whole world feels with Ron's passing! To those of us fortunate enough to work with him, he was always the most thoughtful, caring person! He was always so concerned about what was going on in your life! With deepest sympathy to his family and friends! He will always be missed!

Ron always enjoyed life and had many friends. Ron and I worked together 50 years ago at Sears. He was a pleasure to work with and a very special friend.

The world has lost a great and positive inspiration. Ron always had a kind word and upbeat conversation. Ron was a good man with a lot of love to give to his family, friends and colleagues. He was unique ... There will never be another like him!



Rest in a well deserved peace, my friend. Heaven just became a better place!
