Ron Gibson has lost his battle with diabetes. He passed on yesterday.

He'll be missed around the drum!

If others know details about the funeral and services, please post those.

Mr. Gibson was a very good man, and, a very good friend. He always would call my wife sweetie when ever he saw her. He will be GREATLY missed. If anyone has any info, please pass it along.

I will miss Ron very much, he was a very good man. He and his wife Judy are good friends of mine. I learned from them and they were always very encouraging. Most of all I will miss his smile and his wisdom.

I'll never forget when he consoled my daughter when she cried over the loss of another elder. He said he was told by his elders not to continue to cry or it would hold the spirit here. Let the spirit crossover so that they could be young and happy again.

Man this hit like a ton of bricks...

Ron was a good man that I respected a lot and an elder to me in a lot of ways, both as a Sawanawa and a singer... He will be missed by a lot of people I know... I'm just glad I got the chance to know him...

My thoughts and prayers are with Judy and the family...

Paselo ne-kana... we'll see each other again...

I just got this news later in the day and tried to reach as many folks as I could - my heart hurts for everyone who new them - Judy and Ron were dedicated to each other - that was for sure. I will keep Judy in my prayers, along with their families.

So one night we're sitting around the campfire and Ron pulls out his drum, looks at me with that little smile and says, "We're gonna call the wind". Sure nuff, in just a little while, the tops of the trees start moving.

You'll be missed Ron

My prayers go out to Judy.

I am going to miss his prayers the most, he is one elder that I really enjoyed and absorbed whatever he said. On behalf of Southern Sun Singers and myself we offer our best to Mrs. Judy, and we will miss you grandpa.

Missing Ron Bookmark and Share

We loved Ron's prayers! We travel all over and it was always such a pleasure to run into Ron and Judy in some far off place where we didn't know anyone...and there they would be competing or drumming. He was a mean duffer as well and loved to play whenever he could.
Our sympathy goes to Judy and all the families and friends who will sorely miss Ron.
