You are in my Thoughts and Prayers. I received a card from Ron last Oct. & he mention how he loved to walk around Lake Anna where he used to swim as a kid. That brought back many memories for me. May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. BHS Class of 1954.

Cindy & family,
I was so saddened to read of Ron's passing. I will miss our occasional seeing each other at the store, Post Office, etc.
Ron was such a jovial person, a wonderful sense of humor, and beautiful smile.
You both brought me much comfort in my time of need, I hope that by knowing others care about your loss, it will bring you some measure of comfort.
God bless & give you strenght during this difficul time.

Dad:
Words cannot describe the loss that I feel now.
I've cried many tears trying to figure out what more I could have done to save you.
I know it was in HIS hands and I have accepted it.
Although we didn't always see eye to eye, you've been my rock all of my life and you meant the world to me. You were and always will be my Dad and for that, I have and always will love you.
It's nice seeing some messages here and seeing how you've touched others.
Thanks everyone for your kind words.

Somewhere in the empty space that's left, there are memories and love waiting to make it okay again, and believe you me, it will be okay again. Time is a great healer as is the Master Healer.
