Geneva--we are so sad to lose our neighbor and friend.  Ron was helpful and friendly to us, and would let us know if he thought something was amiss while we were out of town.  We will be working in Baltimore during the visitation and funeral, but please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of sorrow.  
Robbie and Shari Watts

Geneva, I will be lifting you up in prayer.  You are lovely and caring, and you blessed Ron's life tremendously. Ron's jolly presence could truly energize a room...he always inspired those around him to experience life to the fullest!  He had such a big heart. We are all so saddened.
"Ron has left the building..."

As they say in the Army, there is always ten percent who fail to get the word.  I was among the ten percent and missed the sad news, viewing and burial and am sorry for that.  I heard about Ron's passing through old mutual Army Reserve buddies.  I will miss his Xmas cards which always included a Virginia Lottery ticket (they never won, Ron) and the periodic phone calls. Sympathies to all.
