Just some sad news for our fellow Herps and friends...

SO if many of you that attended the reptile gathering we had years ago may remember Ron ( Pyrate81). We were informed of his suddenly passing between xmas and last week ( 1-3-2023).. We don't know any the details but his sister has posted though his Facebook, and informed us this past Monday. She stated his snakes went to a forever home with a friend he had near by. Ranger his dog went back with her to Ohio I believe it was. My wife and I are still upset over hearing this and actually was talking about getting up with him and visiting as we had not talked in a year or so. I wanted to make sure the info was passed on for those that remember him and such. If i can find more info I will add it to the post.

Oh, how very sad- I wish I'd known him, I just checked out his details here & he was "young"- only in his low 40's- & he had a wide variety of snakes, many in common with me (either past or present). :(
