Ron was one of many of our classmates whom I did not know well, but who had left with me a lasting impression. He simply seemed to be a nice guy. His high school picture brought an immediate smile to my face. We knew each other's names and would use them when passing in the MHS hallways, but we didn't hang out together. He was a good guy and, I hope, enjoyed a very good life. God bless Ron and his loved ones!
