Several posts were made on other media, but I am compelled to visit you and reflect here as well. You are remembered and missed my friend. I am happy to share that while the pain of your loss is something we all feel, the stories , reflections, and personal rememberences are joyous! We have left a profound impact on all of us.

You were a great Deputy, a wonderful person, but most of all, a true friend! May your place in heaven be just that. And may the Lord continue to watch over all who know and love you. And may he watch over all who serve!
Peace

Hey Ron I don't get on here as much as I should but I caught myself thinking of you even more after we lost Mackay. I didn't know him but John and Anthony did and I ask for you two to keep looking down on us all. I know you are both patrolling Heavens streets now and keeping it safe. God be with you both and until next time brothers!

Hi Ron
You were on my mind today. I remember our laughter and anguish over things our sons were up to. Most of all I remember with fondness your integrity and delightful nature.
You are missed..

Hey Ron, its been awhile since I have been on here. Its getting closer to the holidays and again I find myself thinking about you. You were a great friend and I miss ya bud!

I ask a favor of you. Please watch over both my brothers in their everyday duties. John is still in 40King and Anthony is at the training facility. I came across a poem that made me think about you:


If Today Is to Be the Day…So Be It

By Brian Terry

If you seek to do battle with me this day, you will receive the best that I am capable of giving.

It may not be enough, but it will be everything that I have to give and it will be impressive for I have constantly prepared myself for this day.

I have trained, drilled and rehearsed my actions so that I might have the best chance of defeating you.

I have kept myself in peak physical condition, schooled myself in the martial skills and have become proficient in the applications of combat tactics.

You may defeat me, but I’m willing to die if necessary. I do not fear death for I have been close enough to it on enough occasions that it no longer concerns me.

But, I do fear the loss of my honor and would rather die fighting than to have it said that I was without courage.

So I will fight you, no matter how insurmountable it may seem, to the death if need be, in order that it may never be said of me that I was not a warrior.”


God Speed Ron! Love Ya Bro!
