Keeping with Ron’s wishes, cremation has taken place. Visitation will be held at Haskett Funeral Home, 223 Main Street, LUCAN on Wednesday from 2 – 4 and 7 – 9 PM.

Im so sorry Gary for the lost of your spouse but also your best friend. Ron was a quiet, proud man he didn’t ask for help but when I offered it at shows he was always appreciative. It was over 20 years ago when we first started competing together with Duchess and Rusty.!!! Ron enjoy your time now riding those big open fields looking over your cows. irene

Such find memories.
Rest in Peace Ron and be strong Gary.
