Ron was a thorough gentleman & allround nice guy. My sincere condolences to Lyn & family. RIP.
We were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Ron. Please accept our heartfelt condolences and know that our thoughts are with you all during this difficult time. We all remember Ron for his kind and patient personality. He was a wonderfully warm uncle to us, always ready with a hug and a laugh. With his infectious, gentle laugh, we will all miss so much. Being able to share so many memories with Ron is an honour. We had some very special family holidays when we all first moved to Australia, memorable mainly for Ron’s bushman skills, overzealous activities and even his stoicism in the face of serious injury. He taught us poms lots of Aussie camping skills, but above all, we remember all the fun. He radiated warmth and good humour; we will always remember how much love he gave to those around him. He will forever remain in our hearts, and his legacy will live on through the impact he made on all of our lives. With deepest sympathy, Mark, Emma, Lyla and Baby Remy David, Rachelle, Arlo and Lane
Ron, you remain in my memory a true gentleman, one of the most decent people it's been my honour to know. My very best wishes to all the family.
Cousin Ron - what a great guy. So pleased to have had the chance to meet him a few years back. He and his family made me so welcome. I have some wonderful memories. Goodbye Ron and much love to Lynne and the family. I’ll be thinking of you all. Dave xx
In Loving Memory of Dear Cousin Ronald Pat
Ron was a true gentleman, in the authentic meaning of the word. He will be very missed by all those who love him. May he Rest in Peace.
With love to Lyn and the boys thinking of you in this difficult time. Ron, we only met the once which wasn’t enough, but you and Lyn greeted us and left us with such warm and loving impressions which has lasted since. Such a gentle genuine man. The world has lost someone very special. I am sure you will receive the most beautiful homecoming.
Thinking of you Ron ♥️ Remembering the happy and the sad times we shared. We are blessed to have had you in our lives, a gentle kind and loving man. Now in the arms of your mum, dad and darling Mark and in our hearts forever. Rest in your power Ron, a most excellent cousin. All our love Cathy, Jonathan and Pip (Penny) ♥️♥️♥️
My amazing Uncle Ron. I was so blessed to have you as not just my Uncle but also as my Godfather. Such a kind and warm uncle who ever since I can remember always greeted me with such a big smile and hug. You meant the world to me and I have so many fond memories growing up with you and our family. I’m forever grateful to be able to see you and say goodbye. You were so brave, still managed a big hug, held my hand tight and we both said “I love you”. I will hold that special moment close to my heart forever. Now in the loving hands of your beautiful boy Mark, loving parents and niece Siobhan. <3. All my love and hugs to Aunty Lynn, Peter, Zoe, Harry and Frankie. Xxx ooo
