At the day of his funeral, hundreds of policemen with thousands of people from the community and other public gathered around. The supporters gathered all around the place of the funeral.
Newman Police Chief Randy Richardson said,
We are grateful to Ron for being the man everyone wants. Thank you for being the person taking care of our society. For being the officer, K-9 officer and the corporal, we all thank you for that.
The widow was handed over the flag amid her husbands funeral service at the CrossPoint Community Church. Police vehicles had all lined up for the procession of the funeral and hundreds of officers were present to pay their tribute.

As the flag-covered casket of Corporal was passing by every officer paid their tribute by saluting him and paid respect.
