Dad, I am so thankful for.....you for being such a big part of my life. You enriched my life more than you will ever know. The memories you created will last and live on forever, your witty sense of humor, your giving heart, your kind and gentle soul, your loyalty, your integrity, your know how to fix all, your ambition, your willingness to help all, but most of all the love you shared with your family. I am so blessed because I have a part of you.....your son and I thank you for that.
We miss you so but know your legacy will live on not just through your kids but through your grandkids and great grandchildren.
I love you and miss you lots.
PS. There's not a day goes by that I don't think of you....My only concern is what mischief or prank you and Harland are pulling on those angels up there. I can see that grin on your face and hear that laugh of yours. Behave:)
Love you Tami

Well Dad, It's a beautiful day today. The sun is out, and Spring is in bloom. Last week many, many of your friends and family came together to celebrate your life. Your Moose Family sent you their peace and love, and many of us stood and honored who you were and what you meant to us. We showed a lot of memorable pictures (Thanks for sharing yourself in so many photos!). We said our prayers, and we laughed at your humor. Thanks for teaching us about so many little yet important things about life. I'm proud to be your son, and I have so much respect for how you overcame some challenges and let your heart open for all to see. You should be proud of how you raised us kids, and I'm sure you are especially honored - and humbled, to have had such a wife who was blessed with God's vision of strength, committment, and enduring love and devotion - As Mom's. We'll take good care of her, and we'll see to it that she get's a long awaited break. I will cherish your integrity, and how you showed me strength through adversity. Things always find a way to get figured out, right Dad ? Rest easy Dad, we'll visit again. -Jeff

We are so sorry to hear about your familys loss. Ron always made us feel welcome, like we were family. It was easy to see that he enjoyed life and really loved Joyce, his kids and grand children. I will always remember the good times my family had growing up at Lake Lawrence , and Ron will always be part of those memories.

Uncle Ron,
You have been an inspiration to me all my life. I will always remember playing baseball with you in our fields when I was young. You always had time for us kids when you came and visited. I believe I became a better person then I would have because of your influence and kindness to us. I didn't visit a lot and I will consider it my loss. I will miss you. To my cousins, I know you know it, but you had one of the best Dads ever. Joyce and family my prayers are with you. Rest in Peace Uncle Ron. We all Love you

Joyce and family,
It certainly was a sad day to hear that Uncle Ron passed away.. He is in heaven with no pain and breathing so freely looking down on his family loving you all. Our prayers and thoughts are with you just as I know that Ron's heart and spirit is also. I will never forget my last visit with him, he was such an amazing man with an amazing sense of humor. I had not realized until that visit how much he reminded me of Grandpa Thomas, his laugh, his voice, his gentleness, his kindness and most of all he looked just like Grandpa. I came home feeling like I had visited Uncle Ron and Grampa Thomas and that was such a blessing. To you Uncle Ron "..-....---..-.----.-----" And that would be " Love you Uncle Ron, see you in heaven!"

Oh my gosh, there are so many memories for me. I Loved him so much as you know, and I know he loved me also. I will never forget him and will always love you A. Joyce, and the family. All the sayings he would come up with and the "ONE he taught Brian about a jack rabbit" is something I will never forget. He was the funniest guy I have ever known. He could sure stay up all day and night playing games if you let him or we didn't fall asleep first. I didn't really know Harland but I am sure he is meeting up with him and everyone he has ever had in his life, including mom, that were waiting for him with open arms. I am also so thankful for the game he made me this Christmas when he still wasn't feeling so well. That was so special and I will forever treasure it. I will always be grateful for your family being there for my family.
Love you forever and MORE~

Life will never be the same without Dad. I have been so blessed to have had him in my life since 1975. How can our family go on without hearing his famous sayings,("two to a bunch" "That's the way the pickle squirts")..... without him and his cribbage board, without his skill roasting the turkey, without his amazing appliance advice. He talked me through replacing a dishwasher timer, range switches and other repairs. I am so honored to have heard this man talk with me about his life, talk about the discarded bread dough which was thrown off the ship to get rid of the evidence (the bread dough continued to float along and they couldn't get rid of it), hear him talk about how he flunked his first driver's test because he got into the wrong car, how he made mistakes,....and how much he loved us. I was only his daughter-in-law. I coudn't have loved him more, had he been my own Dad. I'd like to think he lived a long time because I needed him. 11 years ago I told him I needed him to stick around. My own father had passed away, quickly, shockingly. I told him I needed him because my Dad was now gone and I still needed a Dad. Thank you, Dad. I miss you now, more than you could ever have imagined. Someone said you are up there in heaven now, playing crib with Uncle Harland. I'm sure you are...... you are breathing easy now.
