Sister Betty and Family,
I remember Ronnie from the Faith Temple COGIC, as we grew up together. You and my parents (Deacon Samuel and Sister Hattie Fuller) saw that we were in the Word of God. I will be praying for you and yours. Remember God continues to comfort us in our time of need. Know that He is God Almighty, the Maker and Creator of All.
Love You,

To the Wife and Mother, Sister Betty and family of Ronnie. I was so shocked when I got the call from my sister of Ronnie's departure from this life. My prayers go out to you in this time of need. I was excited when I thought about how God snatched Ronnie out of this world because he was READY. One of my favorite Scriptures is "To be Absent from the Body is to be present with the Lord." I truly believe Ronnie is walking with the Lord now. I really wish I could be in attendance at the homegoing celebration butplease know that I am yet praying for you. Love you much.
