Pat, Bill and family;
So sorry to hear about Ron’s passing. We know he was a talented musician and we saw him quite a lot. Bob & I hav ebeen really sick and wish we could have been there. Our thoughts are with you all now.
Great guitar player and song writer. I’m glad I got to jam with him. Would always take time to say hi to me at Wegmans and was always laughing with me and talking about music and coming up with clever and funny names for me to call a band if I put one together, like “Len an McCartney” I’m going to miss him.I hope the Lord allows us to play together again.
To the Family of Mr Ronald Race~ I read of the loss of your dear loved one, and would like to extend my sincere condolences to all of you. Please, take comfort in knowing that Our Creator will soon remove all causes of suffering, pain, sorrow, and even death forever! May you be comforted by this promise as you gain the strength and inner peace to cope with the very difficult days ahead. May I assure you, I am not trying to give or change your religion. The pain of loss is felt, regardless of religion.
Ron will be missed, thank you for being the first friend I ever met when I moved to this state from Pennsylvania, I will miss you, rest in peace.
Ron will be remembered as a joyful guitarist. Peace, prayers and God’s blessings.
