    Scott and Julie so sorry to hear about the loss of your father. We would have loved to have met Ron and I feel sure we seen him wrestle live because back in the 70's we were huge wrestling fans. We remember the name well. Since knowing that he was your father we have watched old clips of matches on You Tube and really enjoyed that. It brought back some great memories!!

    So very sorry to learn of Ron's death. I well remember the handsome, gentle and somewhat shy young man who worked for my dad at Big Star during our teenage years. How surprised I was to learn years later of Ron's huge success as the "bad guy" professional wrestler. Apparently he had acting talents yet undiscovered when we worked together at Dad's store. I am truly sad for his passing. Teri Young Borton
