I hope it's just a rumor. There's a link to an article about a wreck on .org, but he isn't named in it. Ron is a stand up guy, and I'd hate for this to be true.

I'm still hoping it's not him. Man in the article linked in this discussion is not named.

What a dark day. Ron was a selfless man who's reach was as wide as America itself. Prayers for his family and friends.

If it is true my sympathy for the family. I only viewed one of Ron's videos but he seemed like a great guy. I think we would see an obituary soon at the following site if it is true (I couldn't find a reference to an accident though):

The Press-Enterprise Obituaries - Riverside, CA | The Press-Enterprise

1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
Lamentations 3:31-33
1 Peter 1:3-9

I haven't even know him for a month, just from his videos but this wrecked me this morning. God help his grieving family. We will have to continue his legacy here at fte

My condolences to the Huxell family and friends. Another member of the brotherhood of twisting wrenches is gone before his time. You will be missed, as you touched many lives through your helping nature. God's peace to all!
