Becky and family, I am so sorry to hear about Ron. Ron hired me to TDS way back in 1977 . I have so many wonderful memories of the time we worked together. I can't begin to mention all of them, but please know you and your family have my deepest sympathy.

Becky and Family:
I was so saddened hearing about Ron. You have my sympathy. I worked with Ron on the Sabre project. Working together with Ron has left me with many good memories. He was my “boss” on the project and my good friend too. He treated everyone with respect. When he retired, TDS lost a dedicated employee. Again, you have my sympathy.......

With deepest sympathy to Becky and family. Ron brought vital telephone billing experience to TDS/CS in 1977 and made significant contributions to IRIS and SABRE thereafter. We wouldn't have been successful without his dedicated effort.

I’m so sorry to hear that Ron has passed. I too know Ron from earlier days at TDS! Those days on the SABRE project & working at TDS bring the work family back together. I remember Ron taking us all out on his boat for a little company outing on Lake Mendota, if I could just find those pictures. My deepest sympathies to you Becky & family.

Please accept my sympathy Becky and family! I worked with Ron at TDS as well as golfed with him on occasion. I will always remember him holding everyone accountable and how he made us earn his respect and once we did, he supported us through anything and everything. He took a lot of pride in the systems he was accountable for and because of this dedication we were all better for it. Again, sorry for your loss!
