Tammy M says
I met Ron 7-8 years ago through a mutual friend and motorcyclist. Because I was going to school and not working and Ron was retired, we frequently met to go riding. I used to joke that I was the youngster (in my 50s) and often checked my mirrors to make sure Ron was still behind me, especially after he had several heart surgeries for stent placement. He loved to ride and had great stories about his adventures on the bike and in life. He was a wonderful friend who was always tickled to see me while I lived in MT and even after I had moved away. I’m sorry we didn’t get another chance to ride together, Ron. You will be missed.

In memory of Uncle Ronnie….It’s hard to say good by to some one who’s always been in my heart. Very hard to choose between a graduating grandson and a cherished uncle. But the uncle loved his grandkids, and knowing that made it a little easier. He put me on his Harley when I was 4 or 5 yrs old for the first time, and at 68 I still get on the back of a motor cycle but to his chagrin, a Gold Wing. But my kids ride Harley’s!!! From food fights, to pulling his boots off after a night of Fun, He’ll always be Uncle Ronnie, and much loved. Ride on Uncle Ronnie! Nawna (Ronna)
