Ronnie, It has been 6 months since you left this world, but I want your family to know how much you meant to me. I remember all the good times at NAC. We lost touch after I retired, even though we lived in the same area of the valley. God bless your family and Mike. You will be sorely miss in this world. God Bless.

Roni Williams, my friend Veronica was a great person. Veronica was straightforward but very sweet. It was always fun to run into her anywhere, on the streets, at work, anywhere! We always had something to say to crack eachother up. Veronica was best friends with my sister Cherry Williams and I was fortunate enough to be one too. Peace be with you and much love. Love Lennis Williams

I was deeply saddened and dismayed upon learning of the sudden and unforeseen passing of a long, time friend. Veronica (Ronnie) was a gracious lady and loving individual. I have known Veronica, since her family's relocation from Reno, Nevada to Salt Lake City, Utah. We attended the sixth grade together at Riley Elementary School. Veronica's family joined New Pilgrim Baptist Church, upon their arrival. My father was serving, as the pastor, at that time.
I was particularly close to Veronica's brother, "June", Augustus Jr. and her immediate family members. I have so many wonderful memories and times that I was fortunate to share with Veronica and her family, through laughter and sorrow. Those memories will always be cherished.
It has been a difficult year for the Carter/Williams family in recent, past year. May your family stay strong and be together in harmony. I will sincerely keep you in my prayers and thoughts. My love and support will always be there for your family. My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you. May God Bless and Keep You.

It is with my deepest sympathy and regret to learn of the sudden and unforseen passing of a dear, long, time friend. I have known Veronica (Ronnie), since her family moved to Salt Lake City from Reno, Nevada. We attended the sixth grade together at Riley Elementary School. She touched so many lives and she was loved by all who knew her. I was particularly close to her brother "June" Augustus Jr. and all of her family members. They joined and were members of New Pilgrim Baptist Chruch, during the time my father pastored the Church.
I have so many wonderful memories of such a gracious lady and I will always cherish our friendship.
It has been a difficult year for your family, but say strong with one another. May God Bless and Keep You All. I will sincerely keep you in my prayers and my love and support will always be there for your family.

My God, what a woman, she could light up a room just with her presences!!
Every time my husband and I went out to dinner with Ronnie and Mike I knew I was going to leave with a stomach ache, and it was never from the food, it was from laughing SOO Much.
I only knew Ronnie for a short time and we had a connection right from the beginning,like we had known each other a life time, we had lost touch the last few months,but she will always have a place in my heart. Well Mike I guess you’ll get some of the Peanut Brittle now. Huggs

Ronnie,

Your passing has left a huge whole in my heart - not even the pain seems to fill the void. You are my sister and my friend and I feel blessed for the wonderful times we have shared and simply for having you in my life. Our entire family will miss you Sis... until we meet again.

I am so sorry to see this picture in the obituaries. I have had Ronnie on my mind a lot lately, now I know why. I loved this lady with her quick wit and laughter. I worked with Ronnie for a lot of years at Varian. She rode to work with me at a time when her car wasn't running or whatever. As soon as she got in the car, she had me laughing at something. I tried to find her a few times, but never was able to. Merry and Tony, & Mike, I am so sorry for your loss. I'm sorry I never met Mike or I don't remember if I did, but I did know the "kids" a long time ago.I hope you will all be blessed with a comfort and peace knowing she will be in your heart's always and I'm sure she will still make you laugh and smile with the treasures she left behind in all of you.

Ronnie, I was shocked to hear of your passing. You were an incredible woman with a huge heart. I enjoyed the many years at NAC with you as my supervisor, going to dinner and all the fun times we had. You always had a special gift for my daughter Reyna since you two shared the same birthday. I will miss your mac and cheese..even though you gave me your recipe, it still doesnt taste as good as yours. To Ronnies family, Im so sorry for your loss...you have a very special angel watching over you. God Bless
