I received this message from Brian; Ron's brother:
"Dear Ged, Thanks for your mail and condolences. We gave Ron a good send off on Thursday with approx. 150 to 170 attendees. The wake was at Chippenham Golf Club where Ron was a member for 37 years and since many of the members attended there was not much golf played that day! Good to see all seems to be going so well at The Eds. Cheers, Brian."
