At some event he had been given a sombrero. I insisted he put it on. :) Dave M Friederich

Ron and I worked together at Allstate. He had a quick wit and made everyone smile and laugh along with him. He was talented as a developer, fun as a person, a great drummer, and much more. He often spoke of his wife and her daughter. He was a man of peace, a man of love, and will be missed.

Us at a Halloween party sometime in the 80's. Brian Lewis

I first met Ron in 1978 when we were in high school together. He was one of the funniest people I knew. He never failed to make people around him laugh & smile. He will be missed. 🙁
