My sweet sweet Ronnie, Another year has passed and things still havent changed much for me. I still miss you as much today as I did the day we lost you. I've been thinking about you a lot though this past couple months because things here in Vegas are getting pretty bad. The lake level is getting dangerously low and apartment rents are going sky high. I'm afraid I'm going to have to consider a change. Oh well, life happens, right ? The next few days are going to be hard for me the closer it gets to the 16th, so do you think you can give your mom some Heavenly support from her very own Angel ? I love you my sweet Ronnie, Always and Forever, Mom

My Dear Sweet Ronnie, Another long lonely year has come and gone since we lost you, but this one has been a real bad one. As I'm sure you know, I lost Rebel this year, and that was very hard on me, still is....Also, there is a horrible pandemic that has hit the world and here in the US , it has killed over 136,400 Americans in just the last five months. Its real bad Ronnie and it's not letting up, and I'm so afraid for our family, especially the grand kids. They are not treating this virus for what it is...A KILLER....They are acting as though it's nothing more than the flu, which also kills a lot of people every year, but nothing like this world wide pandemic . I have tried talking to all of them and what did I get for my concern...basically being told off in no uncertain terms and that they weren't going to live their lives in fear....And that Ronnie is so very dangerous, because they are not following the rules set forth by the CDC or the scientist, and this I'm afraid is going to catch up to one of them and its not going to be good. All I can do is Pray to God that if somebody in my family has to perish in this pandemic , please let it be me...I've lived my life and they havent and just because they dont understand that their lives are at stake more than ever before in their short time here on earth so far, I need to be the one who has to go if some one in our family has to perish before this evil is eradicated . I know that you are an Angel up in Heaven, so please Ronnie, be a Guardian Angel over the ones who dont believe how bad this monster is and protect them from its grip on them...Any way, I miss you so much my son, and could really use your help down here right now had you not been taken from us....You were always such a good influence on all of the younger ones in our family, even you son....I just dont have that special gift that you had....I will mourn my loss of you tomorrow on the 16th , but I will rejoice in the fact that I know you are in Heaven with our Heavenly Father, and I will celebrate my memories of your life in my family as my beloved son....I love and miss you dearly Ronnie...Always and Forever, Mom...

My Dear Ronnie, I'm going to try this again as I wrote a tribute on here earlier today and when I went to post it I lost it, go figure.....always my luck. So I know its been a while since I've been on here and I dont really have an excuse. I havent been doing much of anything for the past three years. We had to move into a small two bedroom apartment just about that time, and ever since then, my life has been somewhat a mess. My health isnt that great these days but I'm trying to push through that, but other things are pulling me down. We are both on social security now and this is our only income. Its barely enough for us to live on, but we are dealing with it. But then last month, my world was turned upside down yet again. We lost our fur baby Rebel. He was 14 years old and finally got so bad with his arthritis that he could barely move and stopped eating. I tried for a full week to try and find different things that he may like just to get him to eat to no avail, so finally we had to make the hard decision to do the same thing that we had done to Bad Boy....Oh Ronnie, this was very hard for me, because Rebel had become my Emotional Support Dog after you passed away. And to this day, I'm still having a hard time moving around this apartment, because I see him in every inch of it....I only had Rebel if you remember because you and your brothers convinced me to get another dog after I lost Bad Boy and I am beginning to think that that was God working His miracles on you boys, because it was less than a year after you boys talked me into getting him, that I lost you.... Any way, now I feel alone again and every morning when I get up and every night when I go to bed, I see your big picture in my room on the dresser next to my bed and wish you were still here for me to talk to. I still love and miss you Ronnie , Always and Forever, Mom

Hello Ronnie its your cousin Tommy Joe. Its been hard for me to accept that you are away. The memories are so strong and I know your still here. I dedicated the song Still Here by Steve Perry formally of Journey for you. I used to listen to Journey and you Motley Crue. The song comes from the memories I had when we used to cruise Dodge. I love you so much good bye for now.

Ronnie, it's been eleven years since you left us. Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you today is very hard for me, because all I want is for you to be back here with all of us, but pain free. We had so much fun when we were all together going on vacations, Nebraska football games , stock car races, etc. The memories are wonderful, but having you with us was absolutely beautiful and so amazing. I know I need to accept what is, and I truly am trying, but my love for you , it makes it very hard. So my son, I will say I love and miss you always and forever for another year ,

In loving memory of such a beautiful soul. We will love you and miss you always. Its still so very hard for me to believe that I lost you. It's not suppose to work that way, but it did, and now with every year that passes I just have to remember that you are the one who is in such a beautiful place now without all the pain or chaos of this world that you left behind. I think of you every day...most of the time I cry, but it is because the memories that you have left us with , left me with are so beautiful, that I long for that special feeling that each and every one of us shared when you were with us. I know that someday we will all be together again, so until that day my sweet son, All My Love Always And Forever , Mom

Well, yesterday was Father's Day Ronnie. I'm so sorry that you weren't here to celebrate it and to be celebrated as what a great father you would have been, had you survived your cancer. This year was exceptionally hard for me, but I'm not going into that on here because I believe that you can see what's going on down here, so there's no need for me to explain it, but I also know that if you were still here, my day would have been better. There's so many days that loneliness has been taking over my life, and I need to get a handle on that, but when I don't have anyone to talk to or who is too busy to talk, it make's it pretty hard to not be lonely. This is why I say I wish you were still here....you always took time out to talk to me no matter what, even if it were at night, you were there for me, and I thank you for it....So, I hope that you, my dad and both your grandpa's celebrated up in Heaven yesterday for being wonderful father's , because each of you were...I love and miss you Ronnie...Always and Forever...

I decided to add Aunt Inna's sweet Chico to your pics Ronnie as he was such a source of happiness to her and now she cries when she thinks of him. But if she can imagine him being with you and Bad Boy, maybe it will give her a sense of peace, at least I'm hoping that this is what will happen...I love and miss you and think of you every day my sweet boy, and knowing that you are happy and not in any pain any more and that you are watching over all of us does give me some sense of peace.....I will see you again someday my Angel, until then , I love you....Always and Forever...xoxoxo

Ten years Ronnie, how can this be ? Seems like yesterday to me. I'm trying to survive, a reason to move on, but life without you, it just seems wrong. I look for something, anything to make it better. The one thing that does, your son makes life matter. I'm praying that someday, before the next ten years go by, I will finally learn how to let you go and let you fly. Love, mom

Can't believe it's been nine years, Ronnie! You could always make me laugh and make sense of the madness that went on back then. You were so loyal to your friends and always had their backs! You'll always be "one punch" to me, but you were so much more, too. I miss your smile and your gentle heart. You definitely were one of a kind and you are so very missed and loved!!

So I guess I better write this again, which really is a downer because you have no idea how hard it was the first time. I signed this about three hours ago on the Omaha Legacy account, and I think that that one has been closed, but dumb me, it wasn't until after I finished and sent it that I noticed which account it was on. So if it goes through, then my sweet angel, you will have two letters from me. It seems as though each of these years get harder for me than easier, but I think that's because I'm alone now. It was much easier when your precious boy Adrian was with me, because at least with him here, I had someone to laugh and talk with. So I guess I just need now to figure a way to go on each year , and especially this week in every year with out completely coming apart. Any way , I will always love and miss you Ronnie, that is a given, and the people who say that time heals all.....well, apparently , they haven't lost any one, or no one as special as you. I love you always and forever
love you ronnie

My sweet sweet Ronnie, It's been eight years since you left us, and again all I can say is it seems like just weeks to me. Your picture is the first thing I see every morning when I wake up, and the last thing I see every night before I go to sleep. You are always in my thoughts on a daily basis. I miss you Ronnie, I will forever miss you until we are together again, but you know this dont you ? I feel as though I was visited by you a couple of weeks ago, not sure, but would like to believe it was you <3 Your very handsome boy was here for ten days to visit when your brother Rick got married in June. It was nice to see him again. And you would love Ricks Wife Dianne. She is just an absolute sweetheart. I wished you could have lived to see him this happy, but then you do see him , dont you ? Anyway, I Love And Miss You My Angel Up Above...... Forever and Always You Have Your Momma's Love <3 <3 <3

Well, here we go again my son. Another year has passed since I lost you, but it doesnt seem that way. In my heart and soul , its like yesterday. And the emptiness inside goes on and on. I probably drive people crazy on Face Book, because Im always putting pictures of you on there, more so in the month of July and October, but thats my way of coping. As long as I can share my photos and stories, in a little way it makes me feel as though I havent lost all of you, theres still a part of you here with me, and that keeps me going. Aunt Inna was right, you did light up everyones life by just being a part of it. Im always going to feel lost without you, but thats OK, because a big part of me died with you this day six years ago. You and your brothers are my life as are your children. I love and miss you so very much my son, and it will remain that way until we meet again. Love you Ronnie <3

I only met you once @ grandpa Lenz house but have been in the family for 19 years. In those 19 yrs even before I met you I heard some amazing storys about you & what an amazing man & father you were & are !!then in your last days my heart ached for the entire family because as we all know what an amazing father, son, brother ,uncle, cousin & friend you are! its not what you take when you leave this world its what you leave behind you :)Its so unfair you were young & an amazing man

April 21, 2014
So yesterday was Easter Sunday, and except for your son and Steve, I spent it alone. So many holidays are spent alone since you left us. I dont know if its just to painful for us to be together or why, but I dont enjoy them anymore. I miss the closeness of our family while you were with us. When your dad and I say you were the rock of this family , you were. Nothing has ever been the same.I really need your help with something down here and I know you know what Im talking about. Please help change this outcome if you can Ronnie, because Im just not strong enough anymore to handle this kind of thing. Please ask Our Heavenly Father for a Miracle for our family. I wanted one with you, but guess it wasnt meant to be. Maybe this is why. Please do what you can, and I love you my son. I really miss our daily talks, and the I love you moms so very much. You always made me smile Ronnie... ALWAYS ! Talk to you soon sweetie ... ALWAYS AND FOREVER IN MY HEART

Happy birthday Ronnie i wasnt sure what I was supposed to learn from losing you and watching how sick you got and how I could help get you through the horrible violently sick moments that î held your hand through now that I am going through my own health issues and I watch codi be in the same place I was with you and now I have an idea of how you felt watching us worry but you handled yourself with grace and dignity and of course your sense of humor to lighten the mood and never took being sick out on anybody now I get it and I know you're right here with me and hopefully helping me to continue to give me the strength to help codi and my family through our difficult time as well thank you for everything you taught me and your love I am so lucky to have experienced the relationship we had

October 8, 2013
So tomorrow is your big day, your 45th birthday. I remember it as though it was yesterday. You were a big baby boy... 9lb.3oz. but of all you boys, you were my easiest birth. I should have known from that you were going to be a blessing in my life. And you were. You were a wonderful child and a truely amazing adult. I miss all the pleasure and excitement you brought to this family. It has never been the same since you left, because there is an emptiness in all our hearts that can never be replaced.This day brings both joy and sadness to me every year... the joy of watching you grow through out the years and and how very proud you were my son, and the sadness that you left this earth so very very young with so much that you never got to do, like watching your son grow up. I will never forget what you said when you found out you had cancer... " Mom, Im never going to see my son grow up". That tore through me like a knife, and I didnt know what to say or how to comfort you !At that very moment, I felt as though I failed you.And to this day, I wonder what I could of done differant to change the outcome. But know how very much you are loved and missed my sweet son, and the only solice I get is that I know your out of pain and happy in Heaven with Our Father. I love you Ronnie Always and Forever, Mom OCT 9TH, 2013

And I'm so sorry for all your familys hurt from not having you. We all know you are in a better place and not hurting anymore.
Keep looking over the ones you love and who loved you and give them strength until you meet up again.
They miss and love you and I would have loved to met you.

Ronnie, not sure why you crossed my mind today. Maybe because it is mother's day and I saw a picture of Marianne. Your boy is becoming quite a man. Remember when you came to visit us in California with Marianne and the boys? You accidentally ran over taylor's bike with your cutlass. You were devastated... More so than her I think. Well, just wanted to say hello and let you know you are still thought of by so many.

I love you Ronnie, And I want to thank you for being your brothers Guardian Angel, Because without you and our Heavenly Father, Im afraid this would not have turned out well. Just wish we could have had a miracle with you also, but I guess Our Lord needed you more. You are so missed and loved my son. I know some day we are all going to be together again, and until that day, you will continue to be my Angel, that I miss so very, very much. RIP RONNIE, momma loves you !!

Dear Sweet Ronnie, Undamnbeleiveable how our song had to point out in "our" lifetime such an idea...of "how do i live" with a painfully unbareable situation that I could have never imagined for myself and to realize it and endure it ultimately 100 times over each time I look into a precious and innocent child's face, our son. Oh oh my. Havent really put in into perspective quite right and very quickly either. Then... "Check this out" ;)...Does the question then come up again...or at least the reality of functioning in life on a daily basis may become somewhat more of a challenge at such a turning point in life get pointed out at least. I dont recall even being able to take that in to consideration. DUH!!! Well something has been telling me something aint working out. That "something"...hahaha is me go figure. Thank YOU, Ronnie, for the reality check. Truely. Your Momma and I really needed that time to talk yesterday. So gratefull am I. Love you Mary. And OH MY GOODNESS singing praises about our son if not to the world ... in my private thoughts as well. You know. He is amazing and wonderful in every way. We are so proud of him, arent we? Oh yes! You too Grandma ...right?? You have been more than amazing yourself. Again, I am so grateful. He would not be all that he is without you.

Happy Birthday My Angel ! Another year in your life that you never had the chance to celebrate, but Im sure the Angel's are taking over for me in throwing you a party. We will have a gathering here as always, but it just isnt the same without you Ronnie. We always had so much fun, and on special occasions as this one today, we will remember you and those good times and thank God that we had you for the time you were here. I feel so blessed that I had the privilege of having you as my son. I love and miss you everyday of my life and always will, until we are together again. Happy Birthday my Amazing son, RIP, YOUR MOM!

My precious son, your birthday is coming up and Im having a not so good week. There are alot of changes taking place right now in our families lives, some good I hope and some not so good. And its times like this that makes me miss you so much, because you were always the one who seemed to be the fixer in our family. Or at least the one who could make everyone feel better, and this is what I miss the most without you. Your making my life seem better, even if it wasnt. I will never be able to cope with stressful things in my life as I seemed to when you were here. You always knew what to say or do to help, and I will forever miss that special way of yours to accomplish that. I really do miss you Ronnie, and love you more than life itself, your mom!

Wow, coming up on the tenth anniversary of 9-11. I remember it so well, the worst day that we can remember in our lifetime. You and I sat for hours, days and weeks crying our eyes out for America and our country. We had many discussions, you and I about how human beings could act out with such violence against others, and just the fact that we were together during this tragic time, we brought comfort to each other knowing that by our faith in Our Heavenly Father, we would overcome this. I will never forget the events of that day, but the closeness that we shared throughout those terrible hours and afterwords makes me so proud that I have such a wonderful caring son. I love and miss you so much Ronnie, and we will again be together someday. All my love forever, Mom

We thought of you with love today. But that is nothing new. We thought about you yesterday. And days before that too. We think of you in silence. We often speak your name. Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake. With which we'll never part. God has you in his keeping. We have you in our heart..

July 16, 2011, My sweet sweet Ronnie, So hard to believe it's been three years since you went away, because to me, it was just yesterday! All of our lives changed that day, and none of us who loved you will ever be the same. We all have to continue with our lives, because we have no choice, but the loss of you has made it very difficult to do that. Memories of all the happy times that you gave each and every one of us is what now keeps us going. I will always be grateful to God, for picking me to be your mother. You were the heart of this family, you always would make sure that if any of us were hurting, that you would be there for us to help us through it! Now, we just struggle to be able to survive. You will always be our hero and every one of us are proud to say you were our son, brother, nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, soulmate, cousins, family and friend! There will never be another "YOU", because those shoes are way to big to fill. I love you my son,YOU will always and forever be in my heart! Forever, your mom!
