Ron Yanch - Rest in Peace

Sigh ... Ron was in my class, and he was a good friend of mine in high school.  He was a barrel of laughs and really fun to be with. He had an acerbic wit and an easy-going attitude.  He died last Monday.

Loving father of Steven & Amanda of Bancroft, Joey & Marissa and Tom, all of Grande Prairie, Alberta.
