This is a sad week indeed...I had to do a double-take when I saw this thread...we just lost my mother-in-law yesterday....(sigh).
Although I've never met him, or heard his spoken voice, we shared quite a few good laughs here on the forum. And I truely enjoyed his presence here...a very influential personality, with honest insights.
I owe my initial interests in beef salamis to Ron, which has since turned into a variety of chopped, cured and smoked meats. He played a major role in my inspirations (probably more than Ron or I could ever know) which I've shared with everyone here on the forums in the past 2 years.
Well, Ron Man, consider me as another chapter in your written legacy. I'll never forget you or all the good times shared here with you, or all the great inspiration you've given me, brother!
Thoughts and prayers, that Carol, Ron's smokin' buddies (the pups) and everyone who Ron befriended find peace. I miss ya already, buddy, but I will carry on with what I've learned from you.
Go with God, Ron.
