Mr Newman was a wonderful man he taught me a lot I worked for him for almost 5 years at display creation.

I have warm memories as a child listening to stories about Mr. Redtree the Dragon, or going to my first football game to see Joe Namath quarter back for the N.Y.Jets. We would argue over the possibilities of a Yankees vs the Mets in a subway series (one of his few short comings being an avid Met fan).
One summer we spent together in kingspoint and we would jog around the Navy academy. I will never forget how upset he was because his tushie was going flat ...He taught me to not to embellish and get to the bottom line when I talk to people...
I secretly looked to him as my mentor because he seemed fearless and he trusted his instincts.
He was a no BS, straight shooter guy. I remember him often telling my mom "Marilyn, it's me you are talking to...." or reminding my dad "Tom, most people do not order a new car without air-conditioning!"
He once took me to the Friars club and what impressed me the most was the tremendous admiration his friends and associate's had by the way they greeted him. I felt honored and proud to be with him....
I am sorry we drifted apart over a career path I chose. I didn't have the courage to be direct and forward like he would have been. He was a remarkable man and I am grateful for the blessings he gave to our family.

Adrien,
I am so sorry to hear that Ronnie has passed. He was the best dressed golfer at Trump. He was a class act. Our deepest condolances to you and your family.
love, Jana and John Scarpa

Adrien and family...I remember fondly, many lovely chats at the Friars with Ronnie. He had an elegant and friendly way about him that always made me feel priviledged to be in his company. And he was always so proud of his family...Adrien's success and his lovely daughter and grandchildren. His smile was warm and endearing; a bit unusual for so successful and strong a figure. Unfortunately I was away and missed Ronnie's service as I and many other friends will miss him. My most sincere condolences to you for your great loss. I hope made easier through so many loving memories...db
