R.I.P. old friend, You will be missed

I will miss Ron most particularly at the bridge table where his immense humour made the game even more enjoyable than against any other opponents. He won his last game last Tuesday so ended on a typical high note.
Rest in peace Ron you’ll be sadly missed but not forgotten.

I reallly don’t know what to say except that Ron’s death was really a shock to Jean & I. It was only a few short weeks ago
that he and I took a walk through his end of season flower gardens, and he talked about what he wanted to plant next
year. And only a few short days ago that we played Bridge opposite one another, and he was in great cheer.
To his family both Jean and I send our sincerest condolences.

My sincere condolences, Ron and Ruth were good friends. We played bridge in each others homes and Ron and I shared driving to Bridgewater for bridge for a few years. We generally met coincidentally at Dr. Woodfords lately, and not too long ago he came to the Bridgewater Club where I have been living for about 10 years now. I shall miss him.

I was so sorry to hear of Ron’s passing. He was a great friend of my fathers and I will miss seeing him at dads for coffee and turkey dinners. Take care to his family.
Carole Nixon
My sincere condolences to Ron’s family. He will be happy to know his furry friends are being taken care of. I was welcomed into Ron’s bridge club a few years ago and enjoyed his upbeat sense of humor and his love of the game. We had a good chat when Ruth passed and I am sure he is now happily by her side again.
Rest in peace and may light perpetual chine upon you.

So sorry to hear of Ron’s passing. I worked with Ron for many years in assessment and enjoyed working with him and especially his sense of humour. I remember many stories of Ron’s escapades both in work and some in his personal life and these always had a humorous slant. One of these has always stuck with me and still to this day I relay it to others because of the humorous way he got his way in that situation. He was a great guy and will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family as you go through this most difficult time and in the days ahead.

Dear Family,
So very sorry to hear this news. Many years ago I would have been a baby sitter for the Levy children ……worked as a nurse with his sister Marion……then years later sat at a Bridge table as an opponent to Ron. Let me just say…..it could be a rather intimidating experience….as he was one of the best. All in stride…he was a great teacher of the game and an unforgettable player and person.
Our thoughts are of you Chris,Katie , Marion and family,
Ted & Randi (Killam)

To Ron’s Family,
I was so saddened to hear of Ron’s passing. I worked with Ron in the Liverpool Assessment Office for many years and I can tell you there were always lots of laughs when Ron was around. His sense of humour was always in fine form and we all had some fun times together. He also excelled at bridge and was a formidable opponent. R.I.P. old friend.
Ruth Anne Zwicker
Katie, Chris and families,
I was so sorry to hear of your dad’s passing. I worked with Ron some years ago in the Assessors Office and we had many great times. I always loved his smile and sense of humor. He was an amazing bridge player and although I do not play the game, his skill at the game was well known. Thinking of you at this difficult time. Take Care.

Always a shock when a dear friend passes. But he went quickly with no lingering good buys. Knowing him, it was just the way he wanted. We re going to miss him, his humor,fine bridging and personal honesty.
