I worked with Ron at Warren Area High School. He was a real jokester and had a love for life that was contagious. He always spoke of his family with kindness and love. He will be missed but I will never forget his smile and laughter. Thinking of you.
I had the good fortune of having Mr. Arzner as a Little League coach in the late 60s.
Regardless of winning, losing or an individual performance, he always provided encouragement with a smile.
God Bless you “Coach” may you rest in peace.
