I just heard the news Aug 19. My dad, Bob Dagwell, served in Japan with Ron, training police dogs (his favorite was called "Taker"). Though I never personally met him, both mom and dad said he'd been to our house in Michigan once, shortly after we moved to Westland from Mackinaw City. I communicated with Ron through e-mail to keep dad in touch even after dad passed in late 2006, then later on Facebook. I remember Ron's generosity well; he put together several huge binders of material dealing with their time in the Air Force in Japan and sent them to us. I last heard from Ron late last fall when he mentioned he wasn't feeling well. I will miss hearing from him. R.I.P. â€ 

You will miss him forever, I'm sure. I'm just glad that you could be together and go through this together.

Thank you for letting me know. Your letter is a great tribute to a fine human being. I remember Ron when we both grew up in Hyde Park. It doesn't seem so long ago. You have our greatest sympathy and I plan to visit the web site.
Sincerely,
Dick Wendel

Thank you ever so much for writing to me about Ron. He wrote of you so often. But I am fortunate to have enjoyed his wit and warmth for quite a few years. 

I know how you miss him. How rare and wonderful to be loved that much. And to love as well.

I will miss his correspondence and brave humor. A truly funny man I really believe that love and laughter extended his life beyond all expectation.

This is a difficult time; Ron will live through your memories and stories. And laughter. Thank you again, Margarite. I am here if you need me. 
Love,
Jane

Thank you for informing me of Ron's death.  He was a very endearing person.  It was unfortunate that I was unable to see him for such a long period of time.  His long letters to me were evidence of his great sincereness.

No one knew him like you. No one loved him like you. When you lost Ron, you not only lost someone you've loved but the life you had with him each day. I'm so sorry to hear about Ron. He was one of the good ones. Those pictures brought back fond memories. I hope that life will get a little easier with time and take comfort in knowing that others care. Love, Pete

With heartfelt condolences and kindest thoughts in you time of sorrow.

Those who have shown us love, brought us joy and made us laugh have given us the lasting gifts of a beautiful life and sweet memories to hold within our hearts forever.

I hope that you can find comfort in past memories to get through this difficult time in your life. I will never forget the good times together as a family. Ron will be forever in my heart as a good man who always  tried to do the right things for his family. May God bless you. With deepest sympathy and love,
Tony, Olivia and Ana Maria

Thanks so much for writing me and letting me know.  Ron had sent me in the past the long history of the physical problems he had lived through.  I had not heard from him recently, but I do know that Ron had great love for you.  He talked about how good you were to him.  I am so sorry to hear of his passing.  I wish you all the best in the future as you carve out life without Ron.
Thanks again,
God bless you,

  Jim

I am so saddened by Ron's passing. I am so sorry he had such health problems that took such a great toll on his life. He was a prolific writer and brought so many memories back to me. I was so thankful to see the pictures you chose to add to his Obituary. I remember seeing Ron standing as he is in the same way as he did in some of your pictures. Love to you from my heart to yours,
Barbara

The photographs were all beautiful.  What fond memories you must have. We are here for you!

Ron surely was a unique man, much loved by many. It says a lot for who you are for him to have met and married you, as well as who he was for you to have married him. He dealt with his medical issues so well. It was hard, I'm sure.

The pictures were a lovely tribute and I liked them also with the music. You two made a very lovely couple, visually, intellectually, and sentimentally.

Love,
Ellen

Ted Jones passed along the news of Ron's death. I was a friend of both Ron and Jibby's while we were in school at CCDS. Those were not Ron's happyest years, but we had a bit of a bond and I really liked him. I am so glad to know that he had a really loving wife.

Hello Maggie,
I'm so sorry for your loss.
He's now at peace and happy.
Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful pictures and moments, they are beautiful memories.
Love Greg and George...

It is comforting to me to know he had such a peaceful passing and you, Margarite,  were there for his last breath.  He really was an intelligent man and a true gentleman.You all were a beautiful couple and a beautiful life as well, just too short.  My thoughts and prayers are with  you.

Love,

Marilyn

I feel very lucky to have known Ron and to have reconnected with him and to have met you who was his life. I am glad he is at peace. 

I am so glad the two of you had so many beautiful years together. I feel that Ron lives on in you Margarite. 

Know that we, Juliet and I, are thinking about you and send our love. 

Frank

My hardest felt condolence to you, Margarite. Ron was a great man and a pleasure to work with. He fought hard and long and always kept his sense of humor and wit. I am glad to hear from you about his final moments, that just confirm what I have always believed that he was a good man with no ill will in his heart and blessed by having you. Rest assured that he is at peace. 
May God bless you always.
Miguel

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.

To My Wonderfull Father in Law May you now go to your resting place to be with the Lord our God. I will cherish all of the time we spent together through the years. Forever in my Heart I salute you my Friend for your loyal service to our Great Country!
