Sinkus family
Ronnie was my cousin on his mom's side. Lost contact many years ago. Grew up visiting Shenandoah where the Sinkus family lived next door to my Babci
Marchunsky. Ronnie was a great guy and I'm sorry we lost touch. So sorry for your loss and to hear that Barbara passed also. Heard of his passing from Anne Sinkus Kaye's. Thoughts and prayers to you all.

We are sad to hear of the passing of Ron. We had many good times with him and Barb during the middle 60"s. Ron and I would ride the mountain roads behind Mingoville in our volkswagon Beetle looking for deer. Many great times. Our sympathy and prayers to the family.
