You'll always be Uncle Butch to me! I have such fond memories of the house in Cazenovia and fireworks on the lake. I know you are at peace in the arms of your children and your parents. Rest in peace.

Dear Mary, I remember Ron as a fabulous boss at his Tres Chic salon back in the seventies. Ron was also a fun person and a really good man. I was so saddened to learn of his passing. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy, and know that I will always remember Ron as a kind, caring person, who touched my life for a brief time. Most sincerely, Barb

Ron did my hair for years. He was charming, hard working man; He loved his family, his dogs and his golf. He love to fly and I hope he had time to do it after he retired. He had a quiet little sense of humor- you had to listen carefully or you missed it. He had to suffer the deaths of 2 of his children - parents are not supposed to outlive their children and I don't know how he carried that with him. I hope he has found peace, and that his family will as well.

I am saddened to hear of Ron,s passing. You have lost a truly special person. My thought and prayers are with you all in this difficult time. What a pleasure it was to have known and been a friend of Ron. I have known Ron for at least 3 decades. When he owned Ron's Trendsetters and then went to work at Sampsons. Have fond memories of having coffee at the Buttery and lunch At Nikos with him. His conversation revolved aroung his children and wife Sarah. He boasted of Melissa's art talent. Talked about his Children in Vegas and his grand children. May the many wonderful memories comfort you. God Bless!

I said to the man that stood at the gate, "Give me a light that I may travel safely into the unknown." And he replied, Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the Hand of God. That shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way." I was sorry to learn of Ron's passing. He was "Just the Best"...a true friend over the years. My thoughts and prayers go out to Sarah, Lynn and Melissa. God Bless Harry Onley, East Greenbush, NY

It was wonderful knowing Ron. He was a man of integrity and honor. He was a great man to golf with, and to gamble with. He was a generous host, who would welcome you into his home, and I enjoyed every minute spent with him and is family. He will be missed deeply, even by those who didnt know him for all that long, but for the short time I knew him it was a blessing.
