I still think of you when I drive my car through the 600 block of Bayard Park Drive. During the summertime when our windows were open, I loved listening to the Bard Brothers rehearsing with their beautiful four-part harmony. Rest in Eternal Peace, Ronnie. You are NOT forgotten!

Dear Bard Family,

Words fail me when trying to express the sympathy I feel for all of you. May you all find comfort in knowing that Ronnie has now joined Jimmy and Deacon & Sis. Bard in that beautiful land he used to sing about--Heaven! As a child, I remember hearing Jimmy, Tommy, Bobby, and Ronnie rehearsing their songs when we were next door neighbors on Bayard Park Drive. Talk about absolutely BEAUTIFUL FOUR PART HARMONY!!! And they made it sound so easy and effortless! May the memories you all share of Ronnie bring you the comfort you'll need in the days, months, and years ahead.

Lovingly submitted,

Debra Smith-Meriweather
