Thanks for posting Gary,
This is indeed sad news, had the pleasure of meeting Ron at a SPSP, a most enthusiastic amateur that contributed greatly to raising the profile of astronomy at the community level.
We need the motivation of gentleman such as Ron to lift our chosen field to greater heights.
Of course I am sure all would extend sympathy to his family but rest assured that Ron made a difference down under, as I am sure he did where ever he went.
RIP Ron Ravneberg Amateur Astronomer and Gentleman.
Regards
Trevor
