I am shocked to learn it’s been over two years since his passing.
Ron lived to have fun, was a gifted speaker and a classically funny guy with a quick wit and endless proverbs. He was at home on the golf course and a closet bowler. Some of my best memories from college were of our Longhorn Thursday night bowling league team antics where we regularly competed at the highest levels behaving like – well – college students!
Stuart, Susan, Tim, Claude, Pam and all the rest would hoist our team flag in honor of Ron – he was a ruthless competitor and jokester.
A great man, husband, father and friend. Someday, God willing, we’ll meet again Ron and throw a few frames and toss some darts again…….Godspeed – In Christ
