Debbie, Tony, Vicky and Families, We are thinking of you all at this very sad time. Ron has been such a huge part of our lives for many many years. He will be missed in so many ways. A great mate to dad for the last 50 odd years, especially the last few years after they both lost the loves of their lives. The stories are endless and the memories are precious. Sending much love and strength to you all xxxx

Ron was just 33 years old when I met him on my 18th birthday...........he always said that he was my birthday present that day.
Condolences to all of the family whom I remember well.
Much sadness hearing this news.

My condolences to Ron's family. I had the pleasure of Ron's cheerful company at the IWMC and on many a memorable golf section outing. There was always lots of laughter when he was around and I treasure those memories.
