My dearest husband yesterday was Father's Day and it was the date we lost you. Ken and I really miss you honey.  I play your music all the time and remember the times we had and wish you were still here it seems like it was yesterday.  I love you and miss you terribly,  xoxo


Hi Honey,
     I wish you a Happy Valentines Day.  I really am missing you my world hasn't been the same and for some reason since I moved to another house, smaller as I couldn't keep it up and Ken was always worried.  That was our forever home and it was hard when you weren't there and Ken was worried with me being far from town.
Someday we will be together again to start a new chapter.  I love you very much.  XOXO

Hi Honey,
    I miss you so much and love you.  Today is going to be hot , later
you would be standing in the lake staying cool and getting so brown.
I listen to the CD's  all the songs  and where we were.  The day we 
got married  and our new life from there, I could write a book we al-
ways had something didn't we?  Thank-you my love.  Ken really misses you to.  He sky dived for the first time to take your ashes with him and when he got on the ground he said dad and I  went up like you wanted to do in your life.  Helen and Ken also got some of 
your ashes put in hand blown pieces so I could have you around my neck always.  All my love, your wife Joanne  XOXO



In the fall of 1970 Ron and I did  a duo playin bars in alberta for about 6 months ,the best guy to be on the road with ,we had a lot of laughs ,i always thought I  would get to see him someday ,but alas  as we age we only discover our old buddies in the obits
 Ron is singin an playin in heaven ,i can hear him right now

ron and I played music on the road  for about 6months  from late 1970 to 71,he was a great person ,I looked for him for years and now with great sadness found him thru this obit ,my brother musician  Ron  ,I always thought we could get together for a drink someday,but i guess not .Oddly enough I think my ex wife lives in Vernon .
 Im sad about this , Ron as I remember was a great inspiration  he was always upbeat and positive ,thats why i remember him after all these years  of playing music on the road ,and as I look at the cotton fields that surround me here in southwest georgia I think of my old buddy Ron .
 Its a long hard road  and Im still on it  , I just had to say something  ,i guess no one will hear ,but with a tear in my eye , keep on pickin an grinnin  in heaven  Ron  love ya man 

Sad to learn of Ron's passing. Lost track of Ron in the early 70's when we moved from Calgary to Kelowna. Last saw Ron at one of his gig's at The Oriental Gardens on McLeod and 75th. Prior to that we used play a bit of pool at B&G Billiards on 16th and 4th NW. Ron was very talented at both accomplishments!
My condolences to Ron's family and friends.  R.I.P

Fond memories of the Carriage House Hotel at night and golf during the day. You always packed the bar and when you sang 'Rose Marie' you brought the house down. Thanks for letting me crash with you when I was in town and thanks for being my friend.  Some of the crazy antics we pulled still make me smile.  Then life happened and I moved south in the mid seventies. We lost track of each other but I like to think the friendship remained. Rest easy, Ron. You had one heckuva run. 

My friend, I will never forget you, you were an inspiration to me. I treasure our times together. Rest In Peace my friend.
