Ronald E. Schmanske

Our prayers & sincere expression of loss to Carolyn and family. Ron was a great guy to every organization he served, as well as every person that he came in contact with! He was chairman of our board of directors for this elkhart handbell performing group, The Jubilee Ringers of Elkhart County. Without his caring guidance & council, advertising expertise and genuine friendship, we would not have been able to continue our musical commitment for the past 30 years. A leader of men! ...

Sorry to hear of your loss, I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs to Dana, Mary and the family.

Ron was a great companion and friend at The Elkhart Truth. I have such Precious memories of him stopping at my desk to chat and have fun. He did a lot for spirit at our newspaper. Marjorie Eger

One of a kind. You will be missed Ron. I will never forget how you believed in me when I was just a new college grad setting out on my career.

God bless you Ron. I will never forget you. You were a real gem
