Capt Ron,

You are a lucky man to have had a father like Capt. Ron Sr. I love the smile on his face when he is holding up those Mutton Snapper in Key West. He touched the lives of many people and he was a real gentleman.

Well that says kind of says it all doesn't it Sal..... Who wouldn't be proud to have that said about them when they're gone?

I think Ron Sr was a guy who had very few regrets and if he could go back in time, he'd do it just like he did it before.

Well done Ron Sr!!
