Thank you, Ron for being such a good friend to me, my son and my family. I am so happy my Mom bought Mama's Deli and became your neighbor in Shopper's Lane. We were lucky enough to become friends with your wonderful father and younger brother and of course...you!! 
I have so many memories of all the laughs we shared. You were always able to make me laugh, even when I was angry at you because you were such a comedian. 
You cut my dad's hair for 30 years and my son's hair since he was 4 years old. I'm sure my father is happy he will finally get a good haircurt in Heaven, but what is Danny going to do? 
Thanks for the fun fishing. Sorry for spilling my drink on the floor of your beautiful bass boat (ha ha). Sorry for messing up your perfectly organized lures in the perfectly color coded boxes. I couldn't resist putting some red lures in the box for ONLY the blue ones (hee hee).
You were going to grow old with me. What am I going to do now? You left such a hole in my life and my heart that will never be filled. Rest in Peace my dear, dear friend. I will love and miss you always.

Ron I am going to miss you tremendously. How do I replace a good friend and an even better barber. Every time I came in in the 12 years you cut my hair it was fun sharing stories (yours were a little longer) with you about about all the things going on in our lives.As I am writing this Michelle reminded me of the ride you gave her in the mustang (90 down puente) and how scared she was.Now you can drive and fish as much as you want brother. We miss you and will always remember you.

RON, My barber for along time and a friend forever.I just am so sad to hear of your sudden departure, and I hope only the best for you in heaven, you will be truly missed.I am even more disappointed that my grandson and I never got to go fishing with you like we talked about so many times, so we could learn from the master!
God be with you my Friend.

Ron, Always looked forward to seeing my Friend and Barber, you were truly a great barber and a even better fisherman. Most of all Ron you had a tremendous gift of always asking about others and recalling all the fun times you had with family and friends. Even when situations were not going well, you always had a smile and thought good thoughts. You will be truly missed by all who knew you.Rest In Peace my Friend

Mike, Larry, Sis & the whole Helms family,
 You all were a big part of my life for many years and I am so shocked to hear of Ron's quick exit from this playing field, Life.  It's just like Ron.   If he is going to do something, he does it all the way, with passion and gusto.   
 Ron had a way of lighting up a room and infecting everyone around him with his enthusiasm for life.  It is so great to know that he enjoyed his passion, fishing.  He would always let everyone in the barber shop know how he did on his latest  fishing venture.  You could feel the excitement as he relived the landing of his latest fish!
 I know you all will miss him terribly.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you all as you traverse this trying time as you say good bye to your beloved Ron.  

Scott & Susan,

Our dear brother Ron. None can imagine the sense of loss or of missing someone as when it happens that you know that you can never see that person again in this life.So many things we will miss, like that smile that no one else has, or when you are busy with something that needs your full concentration and your tongue sticks out as if it were necessary to completing the task, or the rumble of you car when you pull up in our driveway, the walls would shake, or the way you walked with so much confidence, or to hear your voice say "Hey Sis" when you called. We miss you dearly. We love you endlessly. Till we meet again and we will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. Your loving sister and brother Loretta and James Finch.

"Ron,you were like a brother that I never had.Since the passing of my father there was nobody that shared the passion of fishing with me like you did.I will
miss you very much and there will be a deep void in my life that will never be filled.I will probably think of you on all of my future fishing trips wishing you were there with me.I am deeply saddened by your passing, but I am sure that you are with your father and enjoying his company once again.

Ron, you will forever be our very happy, cheerful friend and neighbor with whom we shared many great times together, when you would come over for dinner or just to kick back and talk. Jose, myself and kids were saddened just knowing you were moving away. Now you're gone forever-to a better place of course. You are missed, Big Buddy!

Ron even though we have not hung out as much as in the past you will truly be missed. I can remember numerious fishing trips that we have had more fun on than most people will ever experience in thier lifetime. You cut my hair until I had no more to cut and you gave my son his first haircut and we still have the certificate from you. May God Bless You and may you Rest In Peace, we love you the Rippey's. Gary, Denise, Nathan & Samantha (Glendora)
Mike I am so sorry for your lose, If there is Anything we can do to help please call me.

RON, you were like a brother to me, we shared alot great times together. I am still in disbelief of your passing. The lord saw you were getting tired and decided it was time to spend eternity with him. I will miss seeing you my brother, rest in peace.

Ron
I am going to miss seeing you Tuesday through Friday five times a day...I loved spending time with you, we had so much laughter/fun and disagreements in that 1970's barbershop. I am deeply sad that you are gone and now five times a day our memories will be in my heart . Thanks for being such a kind and loving person, I will never forget you.
I miss you my friend,till we meet again
Esther Jones

To my Brother Ron, Its from your little Brother Meekle. Ron I love you and will always love and miss you until we are together again in Heaven. I will never forget how proud I am and always have been to be your little Meekle. You got the looks, personality and the gift to to make people laugh. We had so much fun as kids. You could tease me and when we I mean me got in trouble lol You would just tease me more. I love you for that Ron. You taught me how to take care of myself and helped turn me into someone who is confident. You always were there to protect me from anything and everything just as big brothers do. I have a secrete Ron! I was there for you too and want you to never forget it because I love you more then words can express. I will always talk about what a great fisherman you were. Man you were THE FISHERMAN! I will never forget how scared I use to be when you raced so many times on your dirt bike and cheered you on all the way telling and bragging to everyone; That's my Brother out there :-) You were awesome.....May God always look at you and say" A job well done my good and faithful servant." You will always be bragged about and always you will continue to put laughter in in everyone's hearts and smiles on peoples faces when we tell them stories about my brother Ron. The pain in our hearts is indescribable not being able to see your face and hear your voice but we will always see and hear you in our hearts. I will see you in heaven Ron and as our saying you and I have LOVE YA KICK IT :-)

Ron was a nice guy and always ready to visit and have fun talking about whatever was going on at the time.I told him he could be a stand-in for Tom Selleck. I will miss him and I know Dave and Ron are having a goodtime visiting. Helen
