We were so honored to have Ronni volunteer at our library both as part of a group from her office and later on her own after she retired. Ronni was a warm, friendly and funny personality who voluntarily worked in our recording studio, book processing dept and for our studio's radio conference. We will miss her stories about her dog and being greeted by her wonderful smile each week. Rest in peace, Ronni.

Ronni was one of nicest people I knew at Firmenich, kind, smart, witty and genuine. She was an amazing pet guardian to Claire and others. God Bless Ronni, as she has crossed the rainbow bridge!❤ Rest in peace.
