Linda, every time I saw you with Ronnie, you were holding hands. I'm a romantic fool and I would think of different love songs. The song for that day would always stay on my mind all day till I saw y'all again. At this time of pain and sorrow, I still think of one and the words are just as romantic. Ronnie loved you so much and I know he is saying "I'll be right here waiting for you". We love you. Blessings to you and the family.

My very deepest sympathy to you, Linda and to the entire family. Ronnie was such a sweet and wonderful friend. He was always so kind, always asking how my bro was doing even though he had his own health problems. I will miss him as so many people will miss him. God bless you all and I know Ronnie is in the arms of Jesus.

We were so sad to hear the news. Our hearts go out to all of the family(s). Ronnie was a wonderful person, always giving, and smiling that big smile of his. He will be sorely missed (understatement), and Heaven just became alittle bit brighter. Ours prayers are with you. Love you always.

Ronnie was sweet and funny and a good friend. I'll always remember his smile, good nature and football games of our youth.

If I had to have chosen a mate for my sister, I could not have made a better choice than Ronnie. He completed her in every way. Toghther, they raised 4 wonderful children and built a life that God definitely sanctioned. He was as close to being a brother as someone can be without sharing DNA. His absence will leave a huge hole in our hearts and his wit and humor will be sorely missed. So, rest in peace, Ronnie, we love and miss you.

For years I have wondered what happened to Ronnie. I wish I knew something more than this news. Ronnie was a good friend in high school, even when I thought I had few. He was a good man in high school and I know he was a good man in life, as well as a good father. His loss is a huge loss to us all. I know he is with The Lord. I pray for his family and friends and that they know they are not alone.

I used to run around with Ronnie and Freddie while in high school at Poly. We spent every minute laughing. He was a great friend and a good guy. I'm sorry he passed so young and I hope he had a good life. RIP buddy and it was good to be friends with you.
