Deepest condolences to Pam and family Ron and I started a journey along time ago when he walked into my Taekwondo gym at that point in his life was the best thing he could have done He became part of a brother hood not only did he get stronger and flourish he made a lot of good friends myself included and undoubtedly a loyal student We lost touch for a long time not realising the battle he faced He obviously possessed a fantastic indomitable spirit and will be missed Rest in peace Ron

Farewell my friend. It’s been an absolute joy being in your presence and sharing the conversations and laughs over the past few years at Dove. Always up for a great chat and a coffee. I’ll truly miss you. May you be riding that bike, while you continue to look over & love your family. Rest in all the love Ron. Much love to you Pam, your daughters that Ron always spoke so lovingly about and the entire wider family. All of us at Dove send our love and thoughts to you all. We’ll be watching Ron’s celebration of his life online tomorrow. Joining from afar xxx Kelly Woods xxx

Bro, Thank you for always being there whenever Mum or I needed you, sometimes even before we knew it ourselves. I've been thinking about it and realised that we've grown closer since Pam and the birth of your girls. Miss Emma and Livvy have changed your world. Thank you for being annoying, less than humble when you were wrong, bossy, dependable, consistent, witty as fuck, judgy, and always offering your opinion even when it was not required, LOL. I'm going to miss everything about you, especially your generosity, even when you didn't have much to spare.
