I am so sorry for your loss, Ron was truly a family man and right in the middle of everything! I will miss visiting with Ron when he’d come to city hall….he kept me up on Grant and the girls. Grant, Grampa was proud of you (he said so). He loved you all so much. I hope you hold on to your good memories and find the strength and faith to see you through your grief.
