Lynn, so very shocked and sorry to learn of Ron's earthly departure. My husband John and I were friends of Ron's from college and shared many great times together. The Colyer family kind of adopted us while we were at SEMO constantly inviting us to family gatherings and Mrs. Colyer was so gracious in sharing her abundance of home cooking
at other times. We have so many fond memories of Ron and the Colyer family. John helped put up hay on the farm and actually liked the job because he was with Mr. Colyer, Bill and Ron. It is inconceivable that they are all gone except Peg.
Just wanted you to know we share in the sorrow of your loss. Ron was definately "one of a kind." May God bless and keep you and grant you peace.

Lynn, I'm so very sorry to hear of Ron's passing.. I literally just found out. Stupid topix I never get on anymore is how I saw. I wish I could've paid my respects to my Bully buddy.
Sorry to hear about the loss of your dad. You are in our thoughts.
Thoughts and prayers to Ron's family in their loss too early. Fond thoughts of Ron's kindness and helpfulness while with us.
Phi Phi forever !!
What a wonderful soul and generous heart. Thank you God for letting us know Ron.
Rest in piece my friend.
Josh and family, please accept my heart felt sympathy at the passing of you father. This is a difficult loss, I know.
