In 1994 Ronny moved back to South-East Kansas area where he was employed at Cessna and Amazon until his health forced him to retire.

Ronny is a member of the First Baptist Church in Mound Valley, Kansas where he was active playing guitar and singing for services. Ronny enjoyed being a lifelong fan of the Minnesota Vikings, playing disk golf, listening to Van Halen, playing his guitar, singing, spending time with family and talking to people. Ronny never met a stranger and could visit with anyone.    The family requests that anyone who has Minnesota Vikings Apparel or anything purple please feel free to wear it to the service.  We think that Ronny would absolutely love this.
