    While I was in Santa Maria Ron's wife called and said Ron had p***ed away thursday, I spoke to her a little while ago, It was a surprise how fast he went. Ron has had bone cancer for a long while. He beat it, but it came back. The last two weeks took their toll. Roger

    R.I.P. Ron. If it wasn't for Ron, we may not have our instant al***ude adjustment, AKA hydraulics. A true pioneer.

    That is so sad to hear!
    Ron has provided me with a lot of information on the X-Sonic, and I was so glad when he wanted Kustomrama to be the official website for the X-Sonic. Rest in peace Ron!
