I grew up across the street from Ron. Knew his whole family. I remember him as a a wonderful boy and young man, with a great smile and personality. I am told that he was the the same as an adult. I am sorry that I lost touch with him. My deepest condolences to his family.

Dear Bambi, My heartfelt sympathy to you and your family. I first met this great guy when he worked for Al Cohen's Sport Store in Monticello. Then, I officiated basketball games with Ron for many years. Ron was a very special human being who will be missed by many. Ron

Euology for Ron Meadow By Nicci Meadow Ron was the youngest of my older brothers.... he was 9 years older than me. He was a good big brother.... and since our parents aren't here to say it.... he was a good son. Ron taught me how to shoot a layup and he hit me a lot of grounders so I could practice and be a better infielder. We also practiced arguing- a lot- but as we matured, we mostly agreed to disagree. We had a few things in common- we both played second base, drums and we both still spoke a little Spanish having had Miss Mauer and having had to listen to those Spanish tapes for years in the mornings before school started...you know what I’m talking about if you were there. Ron also used to show up at my house- and probably yours - with flowers and food- usually something he baked. Ron was a good son- he was the only one of us to stay in liberty - my other brothers and I moved away. Ron stayed and as our parents grew old, he (along with Bambi,his wife and kids Ashley and Ethan) took care of them so they didn’t have to go to nursing homes and could die at home as they wanted. Ron also kept the Jewish traditions alive which was especially important to our father. In one of the last few emails between us I learned something about Ron I didn’t know and so in Ron’s memory...if you have a few extra dollars every once in a while.... buy a scratch ticket and give it to someone – a stranger- that you think could use it....  Finally, Ron and I played a gotcha game with this drawing of a face with fingers just peaking above a line ... and as it turns out, i got the last gotcha… (Then I placed the “gotcha” drawing and a scratch ticket on his casket).
