K9RON, know locally as "Ronski", passed away a few days ago after fighting leukemia for a number of years. Ron was very active locally and on HF DX until the illness recently took his strength away. Ron was kind to all and had a heart of gold. He was active in hamfesting, and other types of radio-related activities. He also enjoyed fishing and being outdoors. His absence is already felt. NC9K
Ron's passing will certainly leave a void in the ham community.Always a friendly person.Liked by all who knew him. Especialy in and around the Gogebic lake,Wakefield,Bessemer, and Ironwood/Hurley area in the western UP of Michigan.
Even tho I don't live there anymore I'm sure his friendly voice is sorely missed.
