Condolences
Thumbsy brought such happiness to BC Cate. I would love working in my classroom after-school and him being in the halls. We always had some laughs and a good conversation. He was a kind hearted man. He was so excited for me that my son's basketball team at Newfield was going for a states run that I gave him a Newfield tee shirt. He would wear it to work and stop ay my room and say "Newfield!".....I also loved seeing him at the boys basketball sectional games....I would search him out just to hear him say it again. Lots of laughs. Gone too soon. RIP Thumbsy, you were a special person.
Well, heaven gained another angel. So many memories of the times at the skating rink, at our house and even the times you took me fishing with you. Your kind heart and cheerful smile will be remembered by so many. Rest in peace my friend. You will be missed Thumbsy.
We are saddened to hear of Thumbsy's passing. He will be missed by many. I am sure he has "Jolene" playing on the radio and a fly rod in his hand. Bill Schwenk & Laura Bellis

Always enjoyed your company, hanging out back in our teen years. Goodtimes at the skating rink, or enjoying pinball, a burger with fries & gravy at the Spa or just chilling out on a main street bench enjoying life.
Heaven just got the best.

RIP Thumbsy, you were a friend and I will never forget you. There is, nor will there ever be be anyone like you, god bless you and your family. My heart and prayers go out to Denise.
Rest in Peace Ron. Will always remember your easy going spirit and your compassion. You cared for my mother during her last years, which I was always grateful for. I’m sure you are in heaven and getting lots of hugs from your grandma. If anyone deserves angel wings, you do.
I will never forget serving you at Phil’s Tavern, you were always a happy camper. That’s where I first met you. We were friends ever since. God Bless you buddy, watch over your family. Get all your friends up there and start playing Scat! My Mom will join ya!
To All of Thumbsy's family. Sending heartfelt sympathy, caring thoughts and prayers too. Many fond memories of Thumbs at the bowling alley and yankee bus trips with Sante. Rip Ron.
Thumbsy was so special to BC Cate! He loved those kids as if they were his own. I will miss that smile and his witty humor.
