If you are/were in Nebraska then you will know what Ron's contribution is to nepalese community. he would go extra mile to help international students especially Nepalese students. We were lucky to have him as an international student advisor. During one point, around 300 Nepalese were attending Bellevue University. I hear there are not many Nepalese students attending BU currently. and I firmly believe the main reason is the Ron. I believe Ron knew about the Nepalese students working off campus. He has visited Nepal and India many times and he knew what's the Nepalese students condition. He would even go drop off/pick up studnets from work site. And I am lucky to say I used his services many times when needed. Mike Bibby and others, I understand what you trying to say but this thread is about RON PSOTA. Sajha is a great medium to reach out nepalese people who are/were in Omaha and its surrounding areas. Many of my frens have called and asked me about Ron's well being after they saw the thread here in Sajha. So I plead to my Nepalese brothers n sisters not to deviate this thread from Ron. He is a great respected person and he needs your generosity. Ron if you frequent this site, we all know you can get through this. We have a faith in you. - Piya
