Ron was great to chat with at family gatherings. He always had something funny to say. We know he is at peace and in a far better place and will watch down on his family. Our heartfelt sympathy to my sister Laura and family, he will be missed.
Ron was a great guy and extremely thoughtful.
We were good friends for many years and roommates for several.
I’m sorry that we fell out of touch.
We are extremely saddened to hear of his passing.
My condolences to the family and sister Anne.
I met Ron in Jr High. We shared an interest in cars,beer,fishing and girls. Pretty typical for boys from Ballard. We hung out together and worked together in construction in the early 80’s Recently I hadn’t talked to Ron but I’ll always remember a strong red headed man who loved his family.
My condolences

I went all through junior high and high school with Ronnie. He was a good friend of mine and visited me often after I had been hurt. I still remember his orange Nova. What a great car!! He was a sweet man and I’m so sorry I had lost touch with him. My thoughts are with his family and his sister Anne.
