My prayers are with all Ron's family. He was a man whose smile
could light up a room and his love of life was powerful. I was blessed

Our heartfelt condolences to the family... He will always live on in my memory as one who loved life, loved to laugh and was a friend to all.. but mostly I will always remember him as that great teddy bear of a dad with a twinkle in his eye who made us all (speaking as a friend of his children) feel like family. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him, but we are all truly blessed for having known him at all.
Our hearts and prayers are with you all.
With love,
Taco and Vidal
