Title: Ron Trentham CR3
Post by: Pete McAllister on Nov 15, 2014, 01:43

It is with a heavy heart that I post this. We have lost a great friend and a brother. Ron was one of the best friends and a awesome teacher to anyone he ever taught. He was a house tech that spent a lot of his time honing the classes for renta techs. He would spend a lot of his own time helping contractors become better techs. The nuclear world has lost a GREAT MAN. My heart goes out to his wife and kids, with this and the loss of their son last year they need our prayers. I only know he was fighting a tough battle the last year or so. I will miss him and will always be indebted to him. You were a great man, and I was blessed to have known you. Rest in peace Brother.

I am very sad to hear of Ron's passing. He was a great guy and I always enjoyed working with him at Crystal River.

Sad loss to the industry, and to all that went through his classes at CR3.

I still remember his explanation about why we document all that we do:

A tort is a tort is a tort - write that survey up, you won't remember it if you need to in court... He made me a better tech with just those few words...

This is very sad. Ron was as nice as they come and will be missed.  RIP Ron.

Ron was by far one of the very best out there. I had the fortune of going through CFCC with him way back when as he would blow the grading curves due to his brilliance. He was a go to guy if you need help on a little common sense tutoring bringing the “spin of the electron” down to layman terms. It seemed so easy for him...damnit...

His training for the “Rent-A-Tech” was without challenge in the industry. Again he would bring the “need to know” stuff down to the level even a new Jr. could grasp. His sing-a-long were dreaded by some and welcomed by others (like me) who would miss an “easy” question knowing that I would be asked that same question many times during class before our final test. He was truly a gifted teacher and best of all a friend.

Ron Rest in Peace my friend and sadly another “Good Guy” is taken from us again.

For those of us who spent outage after outage at CR-III this is very sad news. Such a great man, teacher and friend to so many of us. Ron, you will not be forgotten.

RIP my friend,
