Mr. Ronco was absolutely a life saver and the best biology teacher ever even if he gave me the only C I ever received in my life!!! (Englewood High School '71) One Monday my girlfriend and I walk into class and to our astonishment there are garbage bags full of toliet paper he'd cleaned up from his front yard after we we tp'd his house that weekend and he had watched us the whole time!!! We thought we were so clever. This man's influence threaded throughout my life and the world so blessed by his presence. How lucky to have been under his guidance. So sad to hear of his passing yet so happy to have chanced upon this notice never too late to acknowledge greatness!
