Our deepest sympathy for the Loss of Ron. I don't have to tell you how much he meant to us or the extent of our relationship. My world will not be the same without him in it and I know yours won't either. I look back on all the good times we had together, the hard times and the laughs, may our memories of Ron stay with us for ever and give us comfort of the loss of him.
