I remember the doll houses Ronnie made and when he gave us a tour of his house and showed them to us.  I remember his cat, Baby, and how Baby thought those doll houses were for her.  I remember visiting Ronnie about five years ago, we (my husband, my son, Ronnie and I) sat on his side porch and my son played guitar and sang.  Ronnie really smiled, I remember how impressed he was with my son's singing and how good that made my son feel.  I remember a couple years later when we were visiting Ronnie and Jamie and his wife were living with him and taking care of him.  I remember Ronnie telling me about how Jamie helped him work in his wood shop, Jamie would hold the stuff so Ronnie could work on it.  Ronnie also showed me a contraption that Jamie had made for him using Ronnie's tools, I can't remember now exactly what it was for but it was a device to help Ronnie, maybe it was for physical therapy(?) I just remember how proud Ronnie was of Jamie's workmanship. Ronnie was also proud of Jamie's cooking, I remember him telling me about the great Thanksgiving dinner Jamie cooked for them that year.

Ron you were such a kind and loving man, I will miss you, you gave me a bottle top that you made years ago and gave them to me in group at the VA...sadly missed.

Ron was very dear to my family and my Mom. We will all miss you. Whenever I look around my house and see the hand crafted trinkets, I always think of you. You are never to far from our hearts. May GOD watch over you.

Dad, we all miss you and love you. Dad was extremely talented and was very proud of his work and enjoyed sharing it those who would take the time to look and listen. Dad encouraged talent within his children and enjoyed any gifts we made him. I and the children Tacia, Haily and Chandler have always loved you and miss you. May you rest in peace Dad

Dad, you will be truly missed. I only wish that I could have had more time with you, and for you to see more of your Grandchildren. Thanks for all the courage you showed me to have, and for sharing your beautiful woodwork. wish we had more time to let one another know what was truly in our hearts. I love you Dad, rest in peace

Dad, You will be truly missed.I wish that I could have had more time to spend with you, more time with your Grandchildren. You were always such a hard worker trying to provide for all of us, and what talent you had with wood! I love you, Dad, I only wish there was more time to tell you that.

Ron was such a sweet man. He loved children so much; you could see the twinkle in his eye when he asked how my kids were doing. And he was very concerned about others, and appreciated their help. He will be greatly missed.

My Dad was the first fan of anything I did creatively. Whether he was hanging up my kindergarten drawings or clipping out my comic strip feature in the newspaper, he always encouraged talent. He was a craftsman at heart, and told me he wanted me to succeed. -AJ Gage

I was Saddened to Hear of this. May God be with you all and Help to heal your Hearts. I will be thinking and Praying for you all. Steve & Judy Gage

Thoughts and prayers to everyone, Ron was a good person and so talented in his wood working. I would have loved to own one of his doll houses, so talented. You dont always find talent like that. Now he can rest,
