I am so sorry for your loss and ours as well. Nothing changes a man’s life like losing his father. I pray that you are able to fully grieve his loss and find peace.

I sincerely am sorry for your loss. All of us only get one pair of parents. Eventually they die. It is a problem that will not go away. Cherish them while they are alive.

Well this is certainly not a post I looked forward to writing.

THR member RON in PA, who has been a part of this board since the beginning, passed away early this morning. I knew him as, "Dad."

During the 1970s in Maryland he was very active with black powder shooting with the Tidewater and Marriottsville Muzzleloaders. After we moved up to Pennsylvania in 1979 he took up bullseye pistol shooting at Lower Providence Rod & Gun Club.

Although he hasn't shot competitively in years, at just shy of 83 years old Dad still shot regularly, most recently this past Saturday. He instilled in my younger brother and I a love of shooting and was a great mentor.

Dad is survived by Joan, his wife of almost 60 years, my brother Josh, myself, and my wife and children.

I didn't have the privilege of knowing RON, but his obvious great reputation among this collection of first class members says all I need to know. He must have been a classy guy.

My condolences

Dave : My condolences.

He is now in a much better world, and might be moving through green meadows next to “Him”, as others have sensed and described when they returned.

Sorry for your loss. 80+ and was still a regular shooter, good for him. I hope you and your family find comfort in memories shared together. Sounds like he lived a full life.
