Andrew,
Your Ronson and my Vortech lighters are in a better place where there is no pain or discomfort.

Your Ronson can now light the way for all of those poor lighters born as Colibris.

I grieved with a 06 Cohiba Pyramid and a homemade mojito. Made me feel better that's for sure

It's a more fitting burial than Spooble's toss off the penthouse balcony to the pool cabana roof.

Andrew,
I blew off a ceremonial salutes of the cannon tonight and I lined up all my lighters in formation. Then we threw a wreath in to the canal to finish off the ceremony. Of course we were all formally dressed.
It was a hard day but together we can all make it through the day.
Pictures will be on the news tonight at 11
By the way I have a drawer of them if you need one let me know

I can't match Chris and fire a cannon to mourn your loss but I did light off a
:-) with one of my Ronsons in honor of your lost comrade. Hang tough little fella and you will get over this loss.

The best thing about a Ronson is that they are a huge family and you can go out and get another one that will do the same thing your old one did. I bought the whole family when I bought my first one,,,all 12 of them and I am still using the first one. The others sit around a whine about when it is going to be their turn and it gets rather annoying so I had to put the rest in the bottom drawer with a promise that at some point I will use them,,,but only one at a time and it could be a long long time. They all Boo'd me and I closed the drawer.

"It went like this:
Today a dear close friend passes on to light the way in heaven for fellow members of the leaf that have passed on. Ronson was there for me through many good times and a few bad times. Ronson never complained and always did the job even if it meant getting banged up from time to time. I have to replace you and I hope you can find it in your flame to forgive me. You know that you will never be forgotten as we both shared some great memories and cigars. Your torch may have gone out here on earth my friend but now you light the way in heaven. One day we will meet up again and share a smoke. "
That's it I may just have to buy me a Ronson now. I had never heard of them till this forum. I like my xikar but man this forum shows more than alittle love to the Ronson.

The Ronson may be in Heaven, but isn't fire better suited to Hell?
*laughs evilly*
My condolences otherwise, sir

... it is your lighter.

He was a good friend and I know you had many fond memories of him, Andrew! May he rest in peace after his final light!
