Our brother and friend, Ron is a mighty man of God, now in the arms of His Savior. Ron was a wonderful example of the gentle but strong spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ. We, his fellow team members at Guiding Light Ministries Healing Rooms, praise the Lord for the time we had to fellowship with him. We will remember Ron as a man of resolute faith in God's Word and a burning desire to see the manifested kingdom of God on earth.
Jean and Judy, we hold you in our prayers. May Jesus wrap you in comfort, strength and peace.
