Thinking About Ron.

Last night I received an email from Ron Bushman's son advising that he had passed away. I don't know if any of you were fortunate enough to know him but he was an avid follower of this Blog, completing just about every tutorial I placed here. I never met him but came to pretty well figure out the type of person he was by the numerous comments and emails we exchanged over the past couple of years. I sure wish I could have met him because I just know we would have become good friends.

I spent this morning on the tractor mowing the back forty as we call the ten acre field we bought last year. There's not much to do as you're steering the machine back and forth across the field but to watch out for rocks, listen to the hum of the mower and think. Today I thought mostly about Ron. I sure hope we end up in the same place so I can finally shake his hand.

  1. Lynn, my sincerer condolences to Ron’s family. It always very difficult to have a loved member of your family pass away. I have always noted his signature as Ron B. and wondered about him as my name is also Ron B., but not the same last name. I’m sure we all will miss his comments on your blog. It’s very Sad to loose another carver -

  2. I would like to express my condolences as well to Ron's family. We never met, but I did enjoy his comments here on the blog. I've never met a fellow carver that I didn't like and if he was a follower of this blog, I have no doubt that he was a great guy. May his family find solace and comfort.
