Kim, Kevin and families…my deepest condolences in the passing of your father Ron. He was such a lovely man ….I had the privilege of dealing with him and your Mom for many years when I worked in the bank in Kleinburg. I was so glad to bump into him while walking the track at the Trisan centre within the last year. It was nice to get caught up. I hope he will rest in paradise and find peace reuniting with your Mom. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I was taken aback when I heard the news that Ron had passed as I fairly recently had enjoyed the lunch and the entertainment at Ron’s table at the Schomberg United Church’s once a month event. Ron was in good spirits, although he did explain to me that he could no longer drive since his eyesight was gone. I have known Ron since he lived in Nobleton and came to Nobleton United Church. He always seemed to have a smile on his face. I also knew that he was a member of the Tim Horton’s crew in Nobleton and his coffee group continued to meet during COVID times but at the Nobleton Cemetery, bringing their own lounge chairs. This same group loved to come to Nobleton United Church’s Pasta dinner in the spring. Good for Ron to choose Maid.

Our condolences go out to the Family of Ron’s. We have known him for many years. Ron always had a smile on his face and a hello. He will be missed at a table in Tim Hortons every Friday. Rest in peace.
Charlie Wilson
Sorry to hear Ron has passed. Ron was the ultimate gentleman who lived a happy and full life as a proud husband, father , grandfather and friend. Ron was the unofficial “Mayor” of Nobleton Tim Hortons.

Kevin and Kim, sad to hear of your dad’s passing. For a long time, Ron was a neighbor and friend. You kids played with our kids Jonathan and Jim, hockey, birthday parties ,bicycling and things probably not mentioned. I recently chatted with Ron and Kevin at Foodland shortly after his 90th birthday. Ron always had time for a chat. Our thoughts are with all the family.

Dear Kevin, Kim and family
Mom shared the sad news of your Dad’s passing.
Ron loved being your Dad because he told me more than once how blessed he felt to have such great kids.
I remember him as a kind and gentle man and your family as fantastic neighbours in Nobleton.
Please know that he will be fondly remembered and deeply missed.

Dear Kim, Kevin, and your families,
I am so very sorry to hear about the loss of your father. He was such a kind and familiar presence, and I always enjoyed our small talks at the drug store whenever he came in.
I would often see him walking into Tim Hortons for his coffee with the Nobleton gang , he seemed to cherish those moments, and it was clear he valued his friendships.
He will be sadly missed by so many. Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Deepest sympathies,

My condolences to Kim, Kevin and families on the loss of such a lovely man. I recall Mr. Ingham as a kind man at church and later at Ron Wilson Construction always going above and beyond in his work.
May memories comfort you.
