George Ron Rivers, III

Well, kiddo - here is your last 'quote of the day': " Why didn't I learn to treat everything like it was the last time? My greatest regret was how much I believed in the future." It never occurred to me that I wouldn't see you again, talk to you again, laugh with you again. I don't know how to open the door and not think of you immediately. I miss you. I will never forget you. I see your smiling face over there and my heart is having trouble as I write this. Of course I will do all I am able for Layni and Malcolm and Ily, though I am unable to mend their broken hearts... I hope that time will be enough to ease some of their pain. I don't know how to express all that I would like to say, so the author of the above quote is Jonathan Safran Foer. (I knew you wouldn't get that one!) - Mary Beth

I miss you. I have not seen you since the day you bought us breakfast out of the blue. I miss out skateboarding and hauling a ramp from house to house to just use it. I grew up with and you will always be in my thoughts. A candle will never show the light you brought to all of us. Luv you friend!

Although, we had known each other for a little over a year; a mutual affinity made it seem far longer. It was a pleasure and an honour to have been friends with such a warm, effusive & eloquent man. Our wide-ranging discussions about music, in particular, were a joy that won’t be forgotten. I’ll think of him often when playing one of the many artists we both cherished. And being bereft of his views on new music or obscurities we hadn't yet touched on leaves me feeling impoverished. Alas, our friendship was just getting started. Ron, my Brother, I'm sure you have front row seats to all the best shows in Valhalla. You always appreciated a band that could deliver the goods in concert. You are one of the Good Ones and will be truly missed. My sincerest condolences to his family - Davin

Arrivederci, mio amigo.

nomi and family- so sorry for your loss, thoughts and prayers to you and your family, jeri walsh (johnston)
