In the early 70’s Ron was attending Centralia College.  While attending college, he worked part time at Leo’s Arco where he was taught to run a Holmes 460.  In 1974 Ron went to work for Chehalis Garage, a Chrysler Plymouth Dealer to get his journeyman ship.  In the late 70’s when Arco was changing to AM PM, Leo sold Ron his truck.  In the fall of 1981, without a job, Ron borrowed $600.00 from his life insurance policy to pay his first months rent.  That morning he had a tow that was $50.00 and that started his till.  Through hard work and those who believed in Ron’s work ethics he now has three locations in Lewis County and one in the Rochester Grand Mound area.
