Truly sad news.  I met Ron during the Healey Challenge at Lime Rock.  Hung out 
with him for a few days while we stayed at Bill Wood's and Ron took some photos 
of the Gary Cooper 100S and Sprite Coupe.  At a crew party at factory Sprite 
driver John Colgate's house, I asked Ron if he could take a couple of pictures 
of my bugeye that was parked in the drive.  He took some beauties that I still 
treasure.  A very kind man and a real loss to those who knew him.

Ron was probably the kindest person we've ever met in this hobby, but with a 
quick wit and a willingness always to go out of his way to help anyone who 
asked for information on Healey racing history.
