We were very good friends. I played music with Ron through three different groups. The last group was our group. Ron, Linda, Patricia and me. We spent hours practicing and laughing having a great time. We went somewhere just about every week end to sing. It was that good ole gospel music. That we all loved. We talked about the Lord and wrote songs and enjoyed carrying his gospel through song. He was a good Christian man who loved the Lord with all his heart. I will miss you my good friend. All of those years singing God’s music was the light of my life. I am sittin on ready Rockin to go but you’ve already received your Heavenly Home. Love the family. Linda and Susie were like my daughters when they were growing up. I am so happy both married good Godly men. Love all y’all
