Ron loved music. He was a talented musician who enjoyed singing, playing saxophone and the guitar especially for his daughter. When he wasn’t playing music, he could often be found dancing to it. Ron was always the life of the party! Despite all of the struggles he had endured he would always smile. He was a naturally talented artist who loved to draw and sketch, even teaching his niece how to draw a flower. Ron worked most of his life in the construction field and enjoyed learning new trades. He was a beloved brother, father and uncle who will be remembered for his witty, funny, kind and giving personality by those who loved him. Ron loved others regardless of their status in life. He was generous and would give the last he had so someone could benefit. He loved with all his heart and soul. He was the definition of love. Ron shared special moments with his nieces and nephew and was always willing to share his knowledge to those around him. Ron's love for life was contagious and will never be forgotten. He lived his life taking in everything that had surrounded him. Ron stated “You will always find me by a body of water” this is what gave him peace. “Live...Life...Love”.
