To My Dear Friend, Ron, Wherever You May Be In That Bonsai Heaven... I Truly Miss Our Daily Email, "good Morning Talks!"

Your Very Old Friend,

Carl

Coffee

Somehow I doubt that Ron is Resting in Peace!

Knowing my buddy Ron he and the other greats are designing new Yamadori for us still here to luck out and find or for us Klutzies to trip over! ;o

Next time someone finds a super tree take the time to remember all the great Bonsai Artists who have passed on and passed on their teachings...Who knows how they helped create that wonderful tree from the other side...

Give em hell Ron! Push them to the limits! Yeehaw what a ride your life was!
Irene

I once greeted him in chat as Ronnie and he good heartedly said " My mother called me Ronnie I haven't heard that for a long time lol" Out of respect I never called him Ronnie again.

He loved this haiku I wrote for him............

the old man smiles

of rash words spoken to him

experience lifts him higher


'Big Ron' is on vacation now living in the Netherlands enjoying the company of Hans van Meer and is been well looked after.

C'mon Ron, let's ride off together, in all directions...
