Fargo I want to express my sympathy to the family of John Ronning. I was privileged to meet John and experience his “soft heart”. I think it should also be noticed that he was preceeded in death by his beloved cat three weeks prior to his passing. I got to visit him in the hospital along with his brother Dean. He was resting comfortably and did not suffer in any way. Dean had a chance to talk to him and say good-bye. John came to see Dean in the hospital before Dean had surgery a couple of years ago and they were reunited after about 30 years.
