Most anyone who reads this blog knows us personally and knows that Ron attended Penn State on a football scholarship. He was fortunate in knowing Joe and playing for him in the early 70's. With the passing of Joe this past weekend has brought a lot of reflection on Ron's part. It was interesting to me to hear people make remarks of certain things he always said and they are statements I have heard Ron say. One such remark was, " if you take care of the small things the big things will take care of their self." Something I've heard Ron repeat over the years. We both think that Penn State football will never be the same, but while it will never be the same it will still be Penn State football and we will continue to show our support to the Nittany Lions.
Matt would always put a Penn State wind flag out on Penn State games. He received this new flag for Christmas from Ryann. When we were at his house on Tuesday he had his new flag out in honor of Joe Paterno. A wise man who has touched Ron's life in many different ways.
