Wondering if anyone knows Ron, is he okay, etc/ Bought an item from him and can't get a response now. Like to know either way what is going on as I have to move on soon with this project for a disabled ham a friend and mine are trying to help. Hope Ron is okay. Just curious what may be going on if anything.... :?:

Ron and I have dealt several times and the last I heard from him was April 22, 2015. I just emailed him - will let you know if he replies.

I had emailed him and I know he is slow in responding. He mentioned he was having health issues, don't we all. I had a heart attack a month ago and reeling from all that (procedures, meds, you name it). Didn't see that coming. Just hope he is okay. I had purchased something from him but to date, haven't heard from him. Another chap contacted me about a tranaction Ron had with this other fellow, he too is concerned something happened.

Really sorry to hear if he is ill, etc. but someone should check on him...hope he had family near by, etc.

I have had several dealings with Ron over the years and he is as honest as they come, if he hasn't responded to emails I would suspect there is something else going on.

Exactly, why I am inquiring....hopefully, someone will go check on his status and post some info...I too suspect something health related happened to him...not going to bug him with 100 emails (no point) or call....if he is ill, etc. that isn't helping him....hopefully he is on the mend and will respond to folks, if that is the case..

At this point, I suspect some serious health issue has come up with Ron. No one has heard from him, no responses to emails. I don't feel comfortable calling (not that intimate with him or his family) and bugging him if it is a serious medical situation. Hopefully, all will turn out okay for Ron (and family).
