Relation: Friend
I have fond memories of working for Ron at BC Tel in the 70’s he was a great boss and I enjoyed the time that I worked for him. He wrote me a great letter of recommendation when I quit and moved to Calgary to work for AGT in 1980. Always enjoyed talking to him at functions when I was home visiting. My condolences go out to Lyndsay and Shar, Tom and Jeannie and their families
