I am so heartbroken about the loss of Ron. Today I was reading about the Christmas blizzard in Buffalo and thought of searching for Ron to check on him. He was a super cool guy at WVAT, Alfred with his white shirt, black slacks white socks and black shoes as he danced around the station in the old campus house. He loved to step to top 40 tunes in the afternoons before dinner. He was just so cool to know and my favorite guy at the station. I flunked out, he excelled and went on to great accomplishments. I looked for him a few years back by email to Alfred Tech and found him in Buffalo he wrote working at UB. He described his difficulties briefly so I knew he was challenged but still the effervescent cheerful Ron. I'm heartbroken he's gone for you, but Heaven rocks now. Remember that when the thunder is loudest, Ron is near bowling with the Angels. I'm certain he would be. He was just so cool. God bless all of you who remain. I was so happy to read what a good life he had and left a family to carry on his legacy. He had one of the best senses of humor in a person I ever knew. He was the Top 40 Rocker and I was the midnight progressive. We crossed paths around dinner time. God loves Ron. I'm sure he had no choice. Ron was just that cool. Love to all of you from Pat, now in Pennsylvania near Scranton. I moved here in 2018 just to be with people like Ron I knew in the country. I am so heartbroken he's gone and I can't laugh with him. God Bless all of you to know he was always the smiling dancing coolest guy around.
