I always loved you even though. I was your step son. You were the only father I knew. I will love and miss you forever. I miss talking to you every 2 to 3 times a week from montana. My wife Katt misses you also. Sleep with angels daddy. I'll be with you soon....love your son...Joe( worm).
I'm going to miss you dearly. You were a inspiration to me. A pleasure to be around. Love you ron. God bless you marie.
Sweet Marie,
I am so sorry. I cried when I found out about Ron. I cry, every time I pass by my refrigerator and see his beautiful artistic picture that he generously gave me to display for my family. He will always have a special place in my heart. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask. May you find peace. Love ya, Marie!
