I've known Roni for about 18 years, and she was like a grandma to me. She was such a unique and special person, always full of energy and had the best jokes! I´ll always treasure the adventures we had during summer breaks - carnivals, movies, farm stands... She brought so much joy to everyone around her (especially Luna :) and will be incredibly missed. But she is now reunited with Eddie and they were apart for far too long. We love you Roni!

I've known Roni for over 15 yrs. She was a beautiful..full of life..happy woman. We talked often. She loved nothing more than talking about her Luna and how she missed her love, Eddie..
Now, together again. Leaving behind so many who cared for her. She will truly be missed. Rest in Peace my friend. It's been such a joy knowing you. You'll so very missed.
Prayers to the family..

I worked with Roni for almost nine years. Sometimes we would be alone on Saturdays with no patients. We would talk and listen to music and talk some more and occasionally work! It won't be the same without you. Rest in Peace.

Lisa, I am so sorry for the loss of your Mom and your Dad. I worked with your Mom for many years at Rabin's Appliances in Hammond. I remember the great walleye she would bring to work for me after you guys had your vacation in Minnesota. She loved you so much and was so proud of you. May God comfort you and your whole family. God Bless. Ruth Lang (Weeks)
