Ron, Don and Wendy, I want you know that I grieve with you. Your dad was such a good man and a cool guy (in a dad kind of way). I'll always remember him taking us to my first real rock concert when he took us to see Yes at the old Spectrum. We all got a wicked contact high from all the weed being smoked around us and the ride home was quite an adventure. Of course there are a million memories for me since your house was my 2nd home for many years. Your dad always accepted me being there no matter the time or circumstances and never seemed to bat an eye. I'm only sorry that I never told him how awesome he was. I love you all! Steve

One of my cherished memories is being with my Dad in the ocean. He taught me to float and enjoy the softly rocking waves. ❤️

I’m so sorry for your loss! Ron was my neighbor for 24 years! He would always have his front door open so I could see the Phillies on his projection screen. He loved that TV! I also remember his cat C, he would call him, and that cat would come running home like he was a dog to see him. Ron you will be truly missed! Rest in peace!
