Our thoughts are with you all in the loss of your husband and father. I know that we had lost touch over the years, an I only had a chance to see him when visiting my folks, but I have many fond memories from growing up a cross the street. God bless you all in this difficult time, an take comfort in those around you who share your loss.

Words cannot describe how much you actually meant to me Ronald. You took me under your wing when you didn't have to. You gave me advice when you didn't have to. You were always there when I least expected it. Whether it was to pat me on the back or chew me out for doing something stupid lol. Hell, I wouldn't be driving my truck if it weren't for you. For the record, I loved those moments when you were teaching me to drive stick. Getting accused of giving you whiplash was hilarious. "You're giving me whiplash kid, just let me out I'll watch."LOL Getting considered one of your own from a quality human being such as yourself was one of the biggest compliments I could have ever been given. I'm going to miss the "What's up?" "Whatcha doing crazy?" and the "Hey you!" but now you can exchange "Lou war stories" with my other dad. I love you Ronald.

I will always remember you my friend. You always took time to see how I was doing no matter how much of a hurry you were in. I enjoyed talking to you in the parking lot while you were waiting on your golf buddy Bruce to get off. You have no idea how many lives you touched through out the year's. We have know each other for quite some time and i don't think a day went by that I didn't tell you that you were a lucky man for having such a wonderful wife that would put up with you and you would always say "well she knows that she is the lucky one". You are going to be missed by many and loved forever. Remember to keep you're pockets full of candy.

Kathy and Terri you have my deepest condolences and sympathy in the loss of Ronnie. When I was at EU he was always so nice and said hi everytime we saw each other. If he passed me in the truck he always waved. If it wasn't for Ronnie Pat and I would never have gotten reconnected with you. My prayers are with the two of you. May God bless and help you both in your time of need.

Ronnie was always upbeat and positive. He was always willing to give a helping hand and not wanting anything in return. He was a great friend.

Cathy and Terri - you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Love, Pat and Linda

Oh Terri, what a wonderful daughter you have been. Your photos and updates show that. Kelly was telling me how nice your dad was; that he reminded her of our dad. The best complement a man can get. You, your mother, and Bruno are in my thoughts and prayers. Find comfort in these words. In the days ahead, try to read from time to time. Like the blessing says, "just around the corner."

Death is nothing at all.
It does not count.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
Everything remains as it was.
The old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged.
Whatever we were to each other, that we are still.
Call me by the old familiar name.
Speak of me in the easy way which you always used.
Put no sorrow in your tone.
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was.
Let it be spoken without effort
Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it ever was.
There is unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am but waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just around the corner.
All is well. Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost.
One brief moment and all will be as it was before.
How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting, when we meet again. Sending you love
