Carl, Kathy, Nancy and families my heart is broken for you all and Cindy.  It is really hard to grasp the fact that Ronnie is gone even though I have not seen him for years.  Through many many tears I relive the memories of all the good times we had here on the Island and in Boston and all the laughter we had at Ronnie's antics and jokes.  He knew how to keep things lively and was full of so much fun.  My heart is broken for you all as you face this time of shock and loneliness and pain.  Know that back here on P.E.I. our hearts are with you throughout this time and God is your Rock!

Ron was truly a gentleman. He loved Alex and Chloe and they loved him.  I am thankful for the children's good memories of their time with their uncle.
