      I am Jewel Walker’s granddaughter.
      I was deeply saddened to hear of Ron’s passing.
      I always looked forward to seeing Ron whenever I was in Illinois visiting my Grayville family. Although I haven’t been to Grayville for several years, Ron has often been in my thoughts and prayers as he battled this terrible illness. He was a dear friend and a wonderful man. He will be missed.
