R.I.P. Ron Bilodeau... April 9, 1976 to November 14, 2012
« on: April 09, 2014, 12:51:55 AM »
Ron departed this earth November 14, 2012, a young life taken to soon...

Ron was a friend to many, a mentor to some and as the owner of Gear Box in Tempe  a shining light in the airsoft community...

We were close with Ron and his family and shared dinners at a restaurant we enjoyed together...

We and Ron's family will again dine this evening on Ron's birthday as a celebration of Ron's life at the place we all enjoyed as family...

You were sometimes My Brother, sometimes my Son depending on our life discussion of the moment...

You are missed Ron...

Please share any comments you might care to leave for Ron...

I am just a chalk line on the sidewalk waiting for the next rain to wash me off...
For the time I am here I am what I am...

I didn't know Ron too well, but when I first started airsofting (2010) I would go to Gearbox and he was always really helpful. He gave me a lot of great information, tips, and advice. He helped me decide which first high-end gun would be best for me. His help made getting into airsoft a whole lot easier.

RIP Ron.
