Condolences & Memories (4 entries)

When someone is gone, they're gone forever, and all you have left is memories to try to recreate a person that used to live and breathe right in front of you. It wasn't fair, the way you had to leave; but I'm beginning to finally learn that fair isn't how life works. It's unreal, the way things are. I still can't believe that you're really gone. God came knocking at your door, and no matter how hard you tried to fight, He was ready to show you the way out of your pain, His purpose for you in his kingdom was ready to be fulfilled. For those of us left behind, we question ourselves and wonder why, and as much as I know how bad you wish you were here, I can feel you smiling down at us. You're free of the chains once wrapped around your wrists, you've made it to the place that we're all aiming to go when its time, I didn't get to know you all that well, but each time I did see you, you always were a happy guy. Justice will be served sooner than later! Still can't believe your gone, You're forever in our thoughts Ron. R.I.P. - Posted by: Zena (acquaintance / friend) on: Mar 30, 2015

Ron I dont even know what to say, I really miss you buddy. We had some laughs huh? Go figure it would be on a bike! I think about you every damn day... "oh that would've amused Ron !" I'll always remember banging on your door at 5 am with a truckload of wire "RON...GET UP, COME ON" ..."who is it?".. "Erik"..... "ERIK... MY FRIEND, COME IN!!..its been so long"...."sorry for coming over at this time of the morning"..." nonsense! It's never a bad time for you! You're welcome here any time!" ..... I know Ronnie, I know, I was always treated like family at your place and for the times we had our disagreements, I'm sorry and I know that they're overlooked now. There is so much more to say but never enough time. We're going to put a memorial up for you... it was a tragic, senseless death. Ride in peace brother, keep your cadence strong. - Posted by: Erik Nelson (friend) on: Feb 19, 2015

I knew Ron thru my work, he was a very nice man and always had time for a chat. I always saw him on his bike wherever I went in Abby. Great guy. Great loss. RIP - Posted by: Terry Short (acquaintance) on: Feb 18, 2015

My dear friend Ron, may you rest in peace. You have been in our thoughts and prayers every day. Such a tragic senseless death. We look at the shed that you and Erik were working on that night, and instantly our eyes tear. We can't believe you're gone. I always remember our talks about our similar banking careers. We used to laugh at how we could tell a banker a mile away. You were always there to listen to years of happy and sad stories. You always made sure to tell me how good of a job I was doing as a single mom, and how well my son turned out. Just a couple weeks ago we were talking about how quickly my child was 6 and now 19 and in University. Oh Ronny, you sure enjoyed your little nursery that was growing all the time. It was a nice spot to stop after a hard day to walk through admiring the beauty and serenity you had created over the years. We had big plans to get your plants sold. I was thrilled you were going to work with me and supply the right plants and trees for my clients' homes. You sure knew your stuff. No matter what, you were always kind to everyone, and helped out alot of people, including myself at times. I thank you for your friendship.... May you rest in peace my friend...... We miss you so much. You will never be forgotten you will be Forever in our thoughts and in our hearts..........: Love Irene, Erik, Quentin and all the kitties too (they miss you too) Rest in Peace RON xoxo - Posted by: Irene Atchison (Friend of many years and neighbour of only a few months.) on: Feb 07, 2015
