Though I only knew Ron for a short time as one of his caregivers at Oakcrossing, I will miss his smile and the impish sparkle in his eyes. He was a delightful man. He will be missed by all of us who took care of him. May God's peace and mercy be with you at this time and may you find comfort in His arms of love.

Amanda and Michelle, I was so sorry so hear about your grandfather's passing. He was always very kind to me. He sounds like he was a really fun grampa. Im sure you've got a lot of great memories to give you comfort. Hugs to you girls.
