    My deepest condolences to June, Jaymie, Josh and family on the loss of a very gentle soul. I met Ron, aka Chowie, in the early 70s because he was such a great friend of Wayne Draper who was then dating my Aunt Karen. As a shy 5 or 6-year-old, I knew that Ron was a kind man. Like Ron, I was part of Aunt Karen and Uncle Wayne’s wedding party. As the years passed, I spent a week each summer in Goderich often staying at Aunt Karen and Uncle Wayne’s and Ron was a common visitor. I attended the baseball games and Ron was on Uncle Wayne’s team. I remember going to the “Club House” after the ballgames where Ron always would be, too. After Ron married Kris, had Jaymie and Josh, and the Goderich folk started heading to Port Loring for their yearly summer vacations, I was fortunate enough, too, to join the fun-loving group four or five times. Ron and Kris were always at the beach cottage to welcome the revellers each morning and the laughter began with them about the previous night’s antics. Josh and Jaymie, you were too little to likely remember me but I want you to know that your parents were so, so proud and adoring of you both. I remember the Millers as one very happy family. I am blessed to have such fond memories. Each and every time he saw me, Ron greeted me with his smile, “Hello, Kathy!” and showed genuine interest in catching up on where life had taken me since the last time I saw him. Ron, you have now joined the love of your life, Kris. May you rest in peace, Chowie. You were a very good man. Jaymie and Josh, a new star will shine brightly upon you each night from the skies above.

    So very sorry for the passing of Ron. We have fond memories of Ron and his family vacationing at Wrightโ€™s Point in Port Loring. We always knew, Ron had arrived on the Point, long before we saw him. He had a โ€œone of a kind laugh โ€œthat we will hear for years to come. Ron enjoyed being at the beach during the hot summer days enjoying a cold one and out in the boat fishing with the guys in the evening. (With another cold one ). It didnโ€™t matter which lake he was fishing in, that laugh of his echoed across the waters all the way back to the Point. We are thinking of his family and all his close friends at this sad time.
