Ronald "Ronnie" James Rothweiler

I met Ron when I was 19 and have known him for 43 years. He was a joy to just talk to and always made me feel better. Durning many times of hardship in my youth he would pick me up, take me to his home and feed me. He is one of the funniest people I have ever know, would give you the shirt off his back and I am very lucky to have known him. To this day I still tell people his jokes and stories. Last time I saw him play was at an open mic at a bar about 5 years ago. He was amazing and it brought me back to memories of my youth within seconds. He was playing like they were paying him. I will think of him often and know at least for me my life has been better for knowing him. Thank you, Ron, I will miss you.

My first memory is going to see T Allen Kelley Band a very long time ago when my longtime friend Jaye was playing in. Hung out with them whenever they played. He was so cute. They played at Crazy horse, the state fairgrounds and a bunch of other places. We met back up again about 5 years ago and have been together ever since. I will do miss our conversations, cooking and watching him play with Jack Ruby band. Gone way too soon. RIP up in guitar heaven love you!

We played music together in Richmond, VA in our band called "TALK OF THE TOWN". During the late 80s and again in the early 90s. Ronnie kept us in stitches with his funny comments and funny stories. He was an incredible guitar player, singer and all-round fun guy to work with. We spoke about a year ago and I had no idea what he was going through health wise. Thanks for all the great memories. Rest in peace our dear friend.

I graduated with his brother Kenny. I saw Ronnie play music back in the 70´s and 80´s. I had many musician friends and saw Ronnie play many many times. His playing was so electrifying!!
God Speed Ronnie Rest in Peace
