Once while Ron was performing at the Tower Restaurant, owned by John Denver, he was asked to sing "Perhaps Love" by John Denver's mother, Erma. Little did Ron know but his best endorsement was yet to come! After doing a show in Daytona Beach, Florida, a video of Ron was sent to Erma ( Denver's mother), who wrote us back saying that "Ron sounded just like John". On another visit to Aspen, Ron performed at the Windstar Foundation, during the dedication of the "Spirit" John Denver's statue, for Erma, Zack ( John's son), Ron Deutschendorf (Johns brother), and John's uncle Dave and Abe and their wives.
