I'm very sorry to just hear of Ronnie's passing, please accept my belated condolences. I was a high school friend. I remember he, his dad and I going hunting together in the fall of 1963. Ronnie was a really nice guy, and had a very nice family. If I remember correctly, he had one of the early Chevy Corvairs that he was very proud of. Fond memories.
