Condolence From: Sharon Karas
Condolence: The Karas & Giffin families wish to send our condolences to Ron's family & siblings on behalf of his deceased cousins Aileen, Olliver,& Cyril (children of Laurie & Dot Giffin). Growing up we all heard or knew of Uncle Reg, Aunt Lily and their family. Unfortunately over the years as families often do, contact became minimal. We know that each of them would want us to reach out with our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Sharon Karas, David Karas & family, Pat Giffin & family, Larry Giffin & family

Condolence: Patricia and family,
I was saddened to hear of Ron's passing. We were both members of the elected "Class of 78" and served together for fifteen years.
During that time, we sat together at the Cabinet table many times. I always enjoyed our conversations, especially our somewhat enlightened critiques of what was transpiring at that particular time.
Ron was a man of integrity, committed to the service of his constituency and our province. He also had a great sense of humour and we shared many laughs together.
May prayer, the comfort of family and friends and fond memories help you and your family through this most difficult of times.
In sympathy,
Joel Matheson

Condolence: I was very sad to read of Ron's passing. It was a pleasure for me to work as Executive Director in the Attorney General's Department with Ron. He was a kind, efficient and considerate Attorney General and most of all a very fine gentleman. He always treated everybody with respect and dignity. I have very fond memories of our time working together.

Condolence: My sympathy goes to Patricia and all of Ron's family. I enjoyed talking to him as a reporter and always found him honest and helpful with his answers to my questions. To me he was one of the politicians I could count on.
