So sorry for your loss. He was a dear friend for f mine. He worked with my grandson Trevor. I will never forgot how he and my grandson surprised me at work on a Valentines Day. They presented me with flowers candy and a few love songs done by a Barbershop Quartet. Ronnie was in the last stages of Alzheimer’s, and didn’t know what day it was. But for a little while that day I was made to believe it was his idea. I will sorely miss him. God blessed him
