You will be missed buddy, I have been lucky to have been able to call you a friend.  I will always keep you in my thoughts and prayers.  You touched a lot of people. Race in peace my friend.

RIP Ronny. You've been through a hell of a lot the past few years.  At least your not suffering anymore.  Thanks for all the car and carbon fiber advise and great laughs.

Gone yet never forgotten.  Been up in Alaska fishing and just got back last week and ran into Jaime and her daughter state side.  Asked her if the racecar made out it yet and they told me what happened.  So sad you just beat your leukemia then this. I was so taken back.  Was waiting for her to say yes and hit the 6's.  Your going much faster now.  Still shocked.  Rest in peace buddy.

Ron  I was just asking the girls here at work where you've been lately.  The last day I saw you was before my family went on our cruise.  I pulled you up on the computer to see when your next appt was and it said deceased and I broke down in tears.   I remember the first few times you came in for transfusions we didnt get along at all because you kept increasing the drip rate to speed up the bags when I wasnt looking and you kept calling me Nurse Rachett.  You know that just made me want to piss you off more.  Just teasing sort of.  Then a good friend of yours from the states told me a few things and from that point on you were not only one of my patients you were a friend. Something clicked.   I always got to see you at your all time worse before and after chemo and  multitude of blood transfusions.  Well now you don't have to go through all that anymore.  I know you werent in any pain but between the chemo and the transfusions on a regular basis you were always tired.  Its very draining on a patient.    We actually miss your attitude around here.  Remember the day you scared me and acted like you were having some reaction to the unit of blood only to find out you were faking and told us you were receiving the wrong product.  THATS NOT RACE FUEL you claimed.  I think of that often   From me and all the staff that took care of you, rest in peace my friend.

RIP Ron. We miss you so much. I'm glad though your not having to suffer anymore. You've always been a big part of our lives and will never be forgotten.  Keep an eye on us from up there. Love and miss you always!

This is still hard to fathom your gone.  Jessie is still talking about how a great job you did to her car.  I spoke with Jaime at the track at your memorial.  There is a bunch of us that want to help finish your car in your honor.  Our deepest condolences to Jaime and her family and mike.  You all were such good friends.  More like family.  Rest in peace RG.

Hard to believe your gone.  I just saw you two days before at the track.  I was in shock for days after jamie posted you had past away.  I called your cell multi times that day thinking it was a rumor.   We were at the Natls in Seattle a few weeks ago and everyone was talking about how excited you and your team were to get the car out and hit the 6's.   I'm sure your going much faster then that now.  Miss you man.  Someone have jamie get a hold of me.  I have something for you and your family if something happened to him.  RIP Ron.  Scott

Dear Ron. We had a bunch of work to do. Get back here or I'll stuff a straight axle under the front of the GTO and put Clay Smith decals on it. Love you, brother. Sure do miss you. Rest easy my friend. You are an example of hard work, creativity and integrity.

Hey Ron ' I still find myself in disbelief that you are not with us ,in person that is, I still find myself thinking I'll see you at Tony's on the weekends and then it clicks in after a split second. I miss ya  'you big ape.

Im sure your putting up a fight up there.  Mike and I will make sure the race car gets finished.  We miss ya!   Happy Belated Birthday and God Speed RON!!!!!

Hey Buddy .... Sure didnt expect to be writing on your obituary considering you put up such a good cancer fight.  Mike and I will make sure your race car gets finished.....  We all miss ya ...... God Speed!!!!!!
