Ronald resided in Hudson with his outstanding caretakers, his daughter, Kimberly, and son-in-law, Paul Cole.
Ronald’s ultimate pleasure was watching his grandsons, Paul Cole, Jr. and Jake Cole, play sports. He never missed one baseball or football game or wrestling meet. He was always cheering them on as their greatest and loudest fan.
