So saddened about the loss of Ronnie. My family and Ronnie's were friends before Ronnie or I were even born. Fun memories were vacations being shared together at Ocean City, Maryland. Crab feasts at each others house were always great. During the school year Ronnie"s parents would sometimes come over on Friday nights. Ronnie and I would go to the Leith Walk Recreation Center were we would mingle with my friends and dance. I can honestly say that Ronnie's parents and the rest of his family were the most fun to be around. I am so glad to have the memories with Ronnie.






Love Sharon

So sorry to hear about Ronny passing away. He was a great guy with a great sense of humor. Even though I've known Ronny and the Chilcoat family since I was about 2 years old, my most treasured memories are from working construction for him during my college Christmas and summer breaks in the early 1970's. Particularly riding with him to and from work . Over those years he became a good friend and a mentor that I will never forget. That loud laugh of his is probably resonating throughout Heaven right about now as he meets up with Pearl Cornet and all his other buddies who are no longer with us.

Loved our talks and laughter. He was a very kind man. He was always interested in you, very thoughtful. Loved when I saw him knowing we would have talks. He wanted to know how I was doing. Never really talked about himself at all. He loved his family so much. I will miss you my friend, you were like a brother to me. Rest in Peace Ronnie ❤

Loved talking to Ron at the beach. He loved a good story and he had a gregarious laugh. Ron had a zest for life similar to his love for farmer's tomatoes. God Bless.
