Ron was predeceased by his wife, Maxine and his son, Ronald Craig Alberts Jr. Ron made many friends throughout his life and especially when he drove cab for Dairytown Taxi. Ron enjoyed watching television and especially the old Westerns. Trying to talk to Ron while the television was on was impossible as he would always get distracted. He loved going to JJ's for fish and chips and had a very sweet tooth. Ron was a kind man who would help anyone that he could. He had a special place in his heart for his grandson Gabriel, who was the love of his life. He loved spending time with Debra who was his best friend and he worried most about leaving her. Arrangements have been entrusted to the compassionate care of Wallace Funeral Home, 34 Sunnyside Drive, Sussex, NB (506-433-1176). There will be no visitation as per Ron's request. A celebration of Ron's life will be held on Monday, August 20, 2012 from Wallace Community Chapel at 11:00am. There will be a time of fellowship with Ron's family and friends immediately following the service at the St. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic Church Hall. Interment will take place at a later date.
