Still think of you and had to add this....... Ron and I met in Marine Corps boot camp and served in Vietnam together. Had the honor of being in wedding to Norma. We became best friends for life - over 50 years. I could write a book about our experiences and the people's lives he touched in various ways. Ron and Norma will always be like brother and sister to me. Thank you for your friendship for over 50 years and when I needed it most. Rest in the peace and grace of God, my friend!

I am so sorry for your loss. I knew Ronnie when I was a teenager and young adult.
He was a fun and nice person.

Prayers for all the family. Ron was a special kind of guy. Always ready to help when he could. Him and Carl spent quite a few hours working in the shop helping each other out. Glad we were able to see him on our trips up. He will be missed. May God's love comfort you in this time of sorrow.

Ron restored my husband's 1981 Datsun 280Z after an accident in 1982 when the insurance company wanted to total it. We had so much respect for his talent and loved getting to know him at that time. Our sincerest condolences to all of the family.

We are so sad to hear of Ronnie's passing. We will long remember his kindness to our family - my mom, sister, brother-in-law and us. He was a dear sweet man and we will really miss stopping by for a visit when we come up to Indiana. God made a few people with special talents and Ronnie was one of them - in addition, he was given such a kind and gentle spirit. Our sympathygoes to the entire family - we know he will be sorely missed.

Norma..... so sorry to read of Ron's passing. We grew up together on Wilshire Ave and were both members of Boy Scout Troop 810. I had the opportunity to run into him while visiting MC about 8 years ago. Our prayers to you and your family.

I'm very sorry for your loss. Some of the best times as a teenager was working for Ron at the Body Shop. He taught me a lot about body work and life. He will be missed.

I am so very sorry for your loss. Ron and my brother, Ken, were good friends during high school. He was always such a good guy. Stopped by the garage when he was working on the Corvette, that came to him in baskets. Ron was always a pleasure to chat with, as our friendship dates back many, many decades. He will be missed.

Norma, Ann, Erica and Aaron, we were so sorry to hear of Ron's passing. He was a wonderful neighbor and friend. Always the biggest smile and greatest stories! Of course, we would not take our cars anywhere else to get body work - Ron was the BEST! Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
