Ron
I just heard of your passing.
We had a lot of fun serving together, especially you singling me out to be your personal driver.
I learned a lot, standing in for you as Platoon Sergeant.
Those memories and jokes I carry with me still today.
You will be missed

I just found out that you died Ron, you were my best friend, in the Army Reserves and National Guard. Will always remember our trips to Sacramento and Palo Alto VA for your medical appointments. Life isn't fare, you were so young, and fun to be around, wish you had lived to see Trump win. I will see you again, one day in heaven. Paul Miller

Ron was a good friend. I met Ron at Shasta College 1977 as we took classes together as Forestry major. We stayed friends until his death. Lots of good memories of time with Ron. Will miss him.

Ron, you were one fun guy to hang around with! I do believe you had captured the sounds of every jungle bird on earth ... and you shared your bird calls with us freely. We had some good times in the Army too. You will be missed. God bless you in the peace you have found.
