Ron, We were together for the past 3 years almost every day and it was a great day Friday the day before you leaft this earth. Ron I know I can never replace you with all the time you worked with me. You taught me how much brothers have something special inside for one another. I can never find that same honesty we had by another man but you. I will definitely keep you close to my heart, and work will never be the same without you. I will watch over the ones you Love, but I don’t know if I have big enough shoes to do so, but I will do my best. Love ❤️ You so much your brother Randy.
Sending my heartfelt condolences to the entire family and friends who we’re blessed to know him.
We are very sorry for your loss in time God will heal all wounds may God be with you all at this time.
Prayers for the family and may God give you peace and comfort. May he Rest In Peace.
I wanted to express my heartfelt condolences to all of Ronnie’s family. Ronnie touched so many lives and will be greatly missed. Death is the hardest thing we have to deal with in life. I know my words can’t change anything and can do little to ease the pain you are feeling, so I pray that the God of comfort calm your hearts and help you heal. (2 Thessalonians 2:16,17) One way that God comforts us today is by moving people who care about us to give us words of encouragement that we need to hear.

My thoughts and prayers, to the family of Ron Engelhardt . I worked with Ron at Premier Roofing , you are correct he was a hard worker, and a credit to Local Union Forty. I enjoyed the time we worked together, wish it could have been longer.
