I am so sorry for your loss. Ronald Mink was a beautiful person to be around with. I use to live in the projects on Martin Street. I grew up around Anthony, Marvin and Kenneth. So don't give up because he fought a good fight and the Lord just brought him up in heaven.

I was deeply saddened to hear of Ronnie's passing. My deepest sympathy and sincere condolences to the Mink family on the loss of your loved one. It was my privilege to serve with Ronnie in the Air Force Reserve from June 1979 until his retirement. Ronnie and I had the unique distinction of being charter members of the 42nd APS and among the last members to have served in country during the Vietnam War. We were on many annual tours together. One of my fondest memories is sightseeing in Frankfurt Germany in 1980, and Ronnie wanting his picture taken in front of every statue and important building. He was truly a fine man, always with a smile and something good to say. He will be deeply missed.

To the Mink family I'm so sorry for your loss.

I met Ronny in the air force reserves over 20 some odd years ago in 905 MAPF- that became 42 MAPS then finally 42 APS. Been on many annual tours together What can I say that everyone don't already know? He was a very gentle soul. Never had a bad thing to say about anyone or anything. He had the Lords joy in his heart, always smiling, always something nice to say. Ron, I know your in heaven with our Lord now.

Ronny will be truly be missed by all who knew him..
