My deepest and most sincere condolences to the family. I had the pleasure of meeting Ron thru his daughter Rhonda, not too many years ago. I wish I had known him longer. Ronnie was a fine gentleman with a kind heart. Although knowing Ronnie for a short period of time, I’ll forever remember him and count him as one of my most dearest friends. May Ronnie forever Rest in Peace in the arms of Jesus. To Suzanne, I would say, to remember you great love story today and forever and that a lifetime together is never enough. Thinking of you now with so much love. To Rhonda, my very dear friend, and to Christopher and Greg, I say no matter how old we are, it’s never easy to lose a parent. My thoughts and prayers are with you as you grieve. To the grandchildren and great grandchildren, always keep your grandfather in your thoughts, may he watch over you from heaven and keep you safe. “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” | Matthew 5:4. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Ronnie see if you can teach the apostles how to play Euchre. God Bless.
