John 3:16 - For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Those we loved don’t go away; they walk beside us every day—unseen, unheard, but always near; they are still loved, still missed, and very dear. We find comfort knowing she is now in the arms of Jesus, reunited with loved ones who went before her, free from pain, and filled with eternal joy.

Ronny Jean Clayton Passero peacefully passed away on Wednesday, July 9, 2025, in Hammond, Louisiana, at the age of 80. She was born on Tuesday, July 3, 1945, in Leesville, Louisiana, to the late Horace and the late Thelma Snell Clayton. She was a resident of Ponchatoula, Louisiana.
