I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Mr. Ron a couple years ago. We really took to each other. He always had a smile and a story! He always spoke of his family with the upmost regard and love. He told me many stories of his time in California and his boat, car building experiences. He always spoke of how grateful he was for his children and grandchildren. Mr. Ron, I hope you are at peace. I will miss you and our talks. You were such a sweet, kind, funny person who I am grateful to have met. To Mr. Ron's family, I am so very sorry for your loss. But please know he loved you all so very much. Sincerely, Kerry Lacontora
