My deepest condolences to your family on the loss of Ron. I grew up on Ward Road in Sanborn & lived across from the Cramer's. As kids my bother Dale & myself have many fond memories of playing baseball with Ron & his brother! I reconnected with Ron on Facebook & enjoyed his posts. He seemed to really enjoy life, having such a positive impact on all his family & friends. I was truly saddened to read of his passing, may God bless you all.

Pat and family- I am sooooo sorry. I drove from my work in Painesville to Jefferson to see you and say bye to Ron. It is 6:21 and I can't even get close to Flemings. Ron is a very well-known and loved man from the line I see. I am sorry that I can't wait. Hugs to you all. Cindy

It has been a pleasure to get to know Ron in recent months and now reading his obituary it is clear that I had only scratched the surface of this wonderfully talented and active guy. What was obvious from the get go was the depth of his love for the Lord Jesus and his Abba Father. Ron had a lot of head knowledge about the Lord but what was most obvious was not that but that he loved the Lord with all of his heart, soul, mind and strength and his neighbor as himself. I will miss him.

Much love to you all as you walk through the next few days. We are praying for you Pat & Michael, and for your entire family as you grieve and give thanks for Ron's life. I was so looking forward to hearing more of Ron's laughter, of hearing more of his jokes, and hearing more of God's great work in his life. We have been so blessed by his life, and we thank God for him today!

My condolences. Mr. Cramer's life sounds amazing in this obituary, thanks for sharing it. He had so many more faucets than what I knew through the marching band, but I did know him enough that I have many fond memories. He was very kind and fun and was certainly taken too soon. :(

Dear Patty, Matthew, James,
It is with great sadness that I heard of your dear loved one’s passing. i watched the memorial video twice and remembered how Ron always made me laugh!

It's tough to see another great troubadour leave our Kononia Community. But we only need to look to God for comfort. Although we hurt because we want Ron with us we need to REJOICE and give praise to Christ Jesus that he is in God's heavenly care!!
Thank you Lord for allowing all of us the privilege of knowing Ron.

The lord has called upon a revered disciple to help him in his work. He has left all of us who had the pleasure of knowing him, a better being.
Mr. C. was an inspiration in molding my life. His insistence on the use of proper grammar is forever etched in my very being. He taught me how to be competitive, sarcastic and compassionate at the same time. For all of that, I say Thank You.

God speed to you Sir. We will meet again on the 4 square court in heaven.

My prayers for peace and comfort during this time. I always will remember my introduction to the Beatles came from Mr. Cramer. I remember his class the most from elementary and I always remember him as a fair person and a teacher that wanted to bring out your best (which he did). Sorry to hear of his passing.

I had the honor and privalege of working with Ron at Jefferson Elwmentary around 1996-2000 when I was an Asst. Nurse. I came to respect his love for teaching and enthusiasm. I know he inspired and encouraged many young lives and continued to positively influence many others after retiring with his courageous Christian boldness . He will be missed. My sincere condolences and prayers to Pat and all of his family .

My heart is so heavy to hear of the loss of Mr. Cramer! He was my 5th grade teacher and also my 6th grade reading teacher. He was always there for me when I needed him and always had a way to make everyone smile. We played so much 4 square at recess and we were always in competition!! I am sure he was an idol to many as he was to me!! My thoughts and prayers are with you Mrs. Cramer and Matt and James as well as the rest of the Cramer family!! I don't need to tell you that you what an awesome man he was, but I would like for you to know how awesome I thought he was!! Fly high Mr. Cramer, you will truly be missed!!
