Condolences to the Family

September 02, 2014

This was my Uncle Ron, whom I was always very fond of.  I last saw him about 4 or 5 years ago when I was in Lancaster for a brief visit.  I am so sorry that I did not know of his passing until just recently.  To Pam and to my cousins, who, sadly, I do not even know, my husband Walt and I send you our condolences.  He was such a “GOOD GUY”.  Sharon (Toner) Gable, SW Florida  Family members are welcome to contact me at sharongable28@aol.com.  Blessings to you all.

My heart goes out to you Pam and to your family my dear friend – I just found out this morning and my heart aches for all of you.  May Ron rest in peace and may all the good memories stay with all you.  I love you Pam!
