Ron was the living refutation to the accusation thrown around that our hobby is nothing more than a den of thieves and brigands. Always pleasant to deal with, and boy did he ever know his stuff when it came to cards! One time I took him a very pretty Johnson T-206 portrait that had walked in to see what he thought it was worth. After looking it over for about five seconds, he handed it back and said, "this will get a four." I said, "really, are you sure about that?" and he nodded his head. You can guess what it graded. R.I.P. Ron, it was a real pleasure to know you.
