Dear Janet, Bev, Maxine and families …. So very sorry to hear of the passing of your beloved brother and friend, Ron. With our sympathies and prayers.
Dear Nan, Our prayers and thoughts go out to you at this time. You folks were some of the best neighbors we ever had in Home, PA. After your home was destroyed and you had to move, our town was never quite the same. I have many, many fond memories of our many visits, chats, talks, and fellowships with you and Ron, on so many different topics and issues! Also, it was so cool when Ron and I would be the cops and “constables,” directing traffic with the state police at all those wrecks and accidents on 119. ….Hang in there, Nan, as I know what you r going thru; my wife died 2 1/2 years ago with cancer. I just recently remarried. Prayers out to You, Scotty and Chad! Sincerely, Bruce Engelman, Ft. Worth, Texas

Wow what a shock to hear of Cousin Ron’s passing upon my return from business trip. I too share many fond memories of Ron both from our childhoods as well as our professional relationship at Penelec. Unfortunately, it has been many years since we had seen each other. Sincere condolences to Madeline and sons, Aunt Maxine, and cousins, Janet, Bev and Maxine.
Cousin Bill
