Ron always took the time to chat with me after the Sat. evening Mass at St. Mary's, as he checked the pews, handed out bulletins, or helped lock up the church --- unceasingly ready to lend a hand with chores both before and after Mass --- without fail, after Masses, he would give me a nice compliment about the music, or about my singing, and then we would share a joke or two, chat about our wives, or the changes in the weather --- Ron always had a ready smile, was so very kind to all whom he met, and was a true gentleman in every sense of the word --- he will be missed !
