I could never imagine my life without you and yes it has been hard. I find peace and comfort knowing the relationship we had and knowing that you will suffer no longer. Please watch over me and help be half the man, husband and father you were. I love you dad! I want to know you are with me in need. Take care buddy. I am so proud of you and I will continue to carry your name with honor and dignity.

Aunt Mary Jane, Ive always been inspired by Uncle Ron. Ive never seen him be anything but happy, and that was always him being himself. I strive to be like him, one who can make a positive impact on anyone they meet. May angels lead him in. Bridget

Dear Maryjane, I was so sorry to hear that Ron passed away, even though I knew he had been so ill with the recurrance of his previous illness. I loved Ron,as you know, and we were such good friends and neighbors for 42 years or so. I had hoped to get back there this summer and am so sorry now that I didn't get to see Ron one more time. I thought of you too often and will keep him in my prayers. I also lost my good brother-in-law, Kenneth MacWilliams my sister Virginia's husband and Virginia does probably not have too much time left with her Altzheimers.I hope that you are able to cope with all this stress and your own health problems. We will keep you in our prayers also. Much love, Ken & Viv

Our hearts are heavy with the loss of a good friend. So many memories but, the one that comes to mind first is our moving into the house on Prairie St. in Crown Point on a 4th of July week-end. Ron said lets do it and they moved us. We will never forget his loving heart and wonderful smile.

Dear Mary Jane and Family, We, Ralph and I, have enjoyed so many precious moments with you and Ron through the years, it would be hard to pick a certain one, because they were all special. Ron was special! Always a happy, laughing and caring person. If you needed help, Ron was there. God Bless you and your Family in your time of sorrow! With Love and Sincerity!

Dear Mrs. Bukovac & Family, My heart sank to hear about Mr. B. Being away from home has helped me to lose touch with those that have helped light my path along the way, but I have never forgotten!! You and your family hold a special place in my heart. Your family was always so kind with my spirit! It was always so warm to hear Mr. B call me Kimmie and to genuinely be heard by this sweet man, meant the world to my soul. Thank you for sharing him with us and the marching band. Please know that you and yours are in my thoughts and close to my heart always. To Eternity, KQS
