November 20th:<\/strong><\/p>\n

If Ron\u2019s purpose here was the art of song writing, he was exceptional in his achievements. Simply put Ron Hynes is the greatest songwriter in the history of Newfoundland and Labrador.<\/p>\n

As a storyteller and poet he combined the beauty of simplicity, power of emotion and the complexity of character and the human spirit. His body of work is unequaled and complete.<\/p>\n

Thank you Ron for your many gifts.<\/p>\n

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.
\nWe will miss you dear friend.<\/p>\n

November 21st:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The store<\/a> has been a very poignant and beautiful place to hang out the past three days.<\/p>\n

As we continue to play Ron and Ron only since Friday opening, many folks have wandered through sharing their stories and memories of Ron. His performances, amazing songs and various personal anecdotes from the years. There have been more than a few tears and lots of hugs. Godspeed, Ron – thanks for touching our hearts.<\/p>\n
