I am best friends with his daughter Jennifer. I am like a sister to her. I have never met Ronald but I always heard nothing but GREAT things about him from his daughter. Since I am so close to her I feel as if I lost a father as well. I am sorry for the families loss and I know that in this time of need God our Heavenly father is watching over them and making sure that Ronald is a Guardian Angel to them all. I also know Ronald loved to play Golf so everytime I go play I will be thinking of him. Once again I am sorry for your loss. May God Bless you all.

Ron will be greatly missed on the course and off. I am extremely honored to be able to call him my friend and feel fortunate to have played the rounds of golf I did with him. I will always remember his friendly demeanor, kindness and quick laugh. I look forward to putting a foursome or more together with Ron when the Good Lord determines it's time for me to join him.
