Nancy and family, My heartfelt sympathy and prayers to you. I always so enjoyed talking with Nancy when I worked at
Westbrook Hospital. I loved the way she talked about her family. They were both such hard workers. God took another one way to soon. God Bless you all!
Shelly, our deepest condolences to you & your entire family! Sending love, hugs & prayers my friend! 🙁
Ron was a kind, honest man. Did you know, Nancy, that he once returned a lost purse (or a billfold) to a Westbrook lady with everything intact? I thought he should have been rewarded financially for his good deed, but he was not. I guess his reward was the knowledge that he had done the honest and honorable thing! What a wonderful man he was, and he had a marvelous family. Treasure the happy memories of your time with Ron. Love and prayers, Eunice Christensen
Sending thoughts and prayers your way. I am so sorry for your loss. All my love to all of you during this difficult loss. He was always a giant in my eyes, and will leave a huge hole in the hearts of everyone that had the privilege to cross his path.
