September 23, 2025 at 4:25 pmTo Laura and family. It is with a sad heart that I post this message but knowing that Ron is with his Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ gives us peace and comfort. I remember the song he always wanted me to sing “When I Found Jesus, I Found the Missing Peace”. May God bless you all and hold you in the comfort of His loving arms.
