Ron and I met in person or talked on the phone every week for more than 15 years. When I moved from Berkeley County to North Central WV, Ron was one of those that I felt would always be there to lift up his community. I remember Ron and his dad Harry from their store location which I recall being on W. Martin Street. I purchased my first typewriter there. As I go through this remembrance process over the next several days, I will surely lift up to the Lord, in prayer, Vicki and Ron's family, that the peace and love of Jesus would embrace them.
