I’ve known and worked with Ron for many years since I moved to South Carolina. He was so creative and open minded and just a good guy. I’m so very sorry to hear about his passing and for the vacuum left in his wake. I pray and leave my thoughts and prayers for Ron and his family.
This gentleman was the text book colleague. Always knowledgeable, always positive, always creative. Never witnessed him in a moment of anger; yet, frequently with a smile. Truely, Ron has been missed.
I’ve known and worked with Ron for 19 years. He was a good friend to me and my family. I am so shocked and sorry to hear of his passing. He was a very kind and caring man. He will be greatly missed. My most sincere condolences to his family and friends. My prayers are with the family.
My thoughts are with the Dover family. I had the great privilege of growing up with this family in Lanford. I am praying for peace and comfort for you all.
I worked with Ron for many years and I don’t know of anyone who was more dedicated and hardworking. As engineering manager and applications engineering, he had a wealth of knowledge. He often could come up with multiple concepts for any design opportunity. When he became sick he continued to be dedicated and hardworking, while undergoing harsh medical procedures. Tough as nails, I never once heard him complain. I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to work with Ron all those years. Rest in the Lord brother and we’ll catch up later.
I worked with Ron for almost 10 years and respected him very much. He was such a wonderful guy and I’m sure he will be missed by all. My condolences go to his children and grandchildren. I will pray for God to give you all peace, grace, and comfort during the days ahead.
So sorry for your loss of ZELLA AND RONNIE MY PRAYERS ARE WITH THE FAMILY. LOVE YOU ALL
Ronnie will surely be missed, blessings to all the family from friends in Lanford. Dale and Mitchell
