page turner
I believe that it had been in the early nineteen nineties when Ronnie had paid me one of his regular visits and noticed the difficulty I was having in turning the pages of a book.His mind started turning over with the innovative idea of finding a solution. Using various types of equipment used in dentistry he came up with a workable device which readily surpassed all current devices being used at the time. The photographsattached demonstrate how it works.
Since then the page turner had been modified, probably in 2005, or soon after to be used as a signing device. (See photograph)( Difficulty in attaching photographs)
I keep expecting my dear friend Ronnie to drop in for a chat and let me hear his latest joke.

Bar mitzvah MC
When it came time for me to choose an MC for my bar mitzvah (1997), I could think of no one better than my uncle Ronnie. On the night as ronnie began to sing a song he wrote about my brit I began to reconsider my choice!! He'll forever be loved and sorely missed.
