Happy birthday, Uncle Ron!



Ron's Birthday
by Mary channeling Lorel  

Hooray its Ron’s birthday,   he’s ninety this year.
For this grand fellow, let’s all give a cheer!

With his lovely Renate always there by his side
The brave two adventure this world far and wide.

Enchantments in Europe with old friends so dear
Weddings in villas, and fine music to hear.

Art is their passion, Ron’s a shrewd connoisseur
And quietly stylish, an elegant monsieur.

From work in the industry, now feet on the ground
In the vast field of botany his knowledge abounds.

With wide-ranging interests and a sense of “I can”
It seems that our Ron is a ...Ronaissance man.

This designer so keen made a most clever clock.
His gifts are abundant---and, yes, he can talk!

He’ll weave a good story, he’s a deft raconteur
You’ll learn something in listening, that is for sure.

With a twinkling bright joke or some thoughtful reflection
From a vast set of stories or deep introspection.

He’s seen much of living, the bad and the good
And spins out the wisdom--- ah, if all people could.

A husband and father and Opi and brother
Let’s now make a toast to this man like no other.

A good ninety years since the day of your birth.
You’ve enhanced life’s sweet flavor for us here on earth.

In celebrating Ron on his 90th birthday, 
shortly before Passover this year, 
we should not forget that Ron has 
combined luck with character and 
accomplishment to earn 
the wisdom of age.

One of Mom's bronzes - Kindertransport - 
serves as a reminder of difficult beginnings 
and the possibility of transcending them.
