"I am sorry to hear of Ron's passing. His father & my father were good friends & he & my brother were good friends also. I was happy to reconnect with Ron while working at WSU & I cannot remember a time when I didn't see him smiling. He had a super personality - RIP friend "

"Dear Rose- I have such great memories of "Ronnie Hey" at Indian Creek. I know my parents, Zig and Janet, sure had a lot of good times with you both on the Mighty Mississippi River and around the campfire! Ron was such a kind man, and what a fisherman he was! No walleye was safe when Ron was out on the water. My mom is here with me in Kansas, and we both are so sad that we can't be up there for Ron's service. We send our love and many prayers. God Bless You Rose. Terri Allen (Glaunert) and Janet Glaunert. "
