I was sadden to learn of Ron's passing. I met Ron playing Little League Baseball. We became friends and ultimately attended high school together. He was a good friend and classmate. My condolences to all his family.

He was a great friend and I remember all the fun we had together as kids. Badminton games the chess club and watching him pitch in high school. He was a gentle giant and I count it a privilege to have been his friend.
