Hello family and friends of Ronald Vinje. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I opened the paper today to see his obituary and the fact that he was born in Wisconsin. One of my very best memories of my childhood in Madison was of our neighbor, Art Vinje. He was an everyday factor in my life until he passed away (1978?). I was wondering in Ronald could possibly be related.
