I’m so sorry for your loss… Ron was a wonderful police officer. As a new kid on the department we learned from Ron and that was priceless.. Ron will Be missed..
Rest in peace Ronnie. I enjoyed working with you so much. You made me laugh every day. Everyone on the shift liked your sense of humor. You will be truly missed.
To say you will be missed is an understatement. To say you were/are respected is a truth. Rest easy my long time friend and brother in arms.
I worked on Ron’s same shift for many years. The thing I can say is he was a proud father. He would often speak of how proud he was of his son. We had many good times together on and off the job and I hope he rests in peace!🙏
The Sharin family has our deepest condolences and prayers. It was an honor and pleasure to have worked with Ron, who was an excellent mentor and a funny guy. He also had a great sense of humor and perspective and could make good of a bad situation. Ron will definitely be missed. Godspeed Ron. 🙏🏼
So saddened to hear the news of Ron’s passing. Words are difficult at times like these . Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Ronnie and I started on the job the same day back in 1972, a lifetime ago. We were pretty close, had some great times on and off the job, and he was a godsend to me at a time in my life when I fell on some hard times. I moved on to other law enforcement endeavors and came back to town for his retirement party. I saw him once after I came back to Illinois and had retired myself. Wishing now I had stayed in touch more. Hindsight. You were a good friend Ronnie, RIP my brother.
Worked with Ronnie, had great times with him. Had great times off the job with him also. Was lucky enough to have seen him two weeks ago RIP brother you will be missed but never forgotten
Jeff, my deepest condolences to you and to your family.
We had fun working together, taking turns to get slurpees in the heat! You will be missed ! XO
Sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of working with Ronny and enjoyed his dry and quick sense of humor. Rest in peace my friend.
