Ronnie was a terrific trailer neighbor when we worked for Pender Co. Schools. He was a great advisor and friend. I will always miss his words of wisdom.

We are going to miss Ronnie. He was one of the kindest people I’ve ever known, with a patient and gentle spirit. He sang from the heart and it was easy to see what a Godly, Christian servant he was on a regular basis. We are sad, but celebrate in knowing Ronnie is doing the same in the presence of Jesus. Praying for Barbara and all the family.

Barbara, I am so very sorry for your loss. Ronnie was a great friend to all of us, and I couldn’t have earned my PhD without his special tutoring in Statistics. His background in Special Ed helped me understand my son’s problems. He was a good and caring friend.

Barbara,
It's been some time since seeing you all, but please know my heart is with you. Ronnie was always one of my favorite cousins and I know he is singing his heart out with my dad now. Prayers in the upcoming days for you.

Barbara, my heart aches for you. Little did I know, when I introduced you and Ronnie all those years ago, that it would be the beginning of a relationship to span over 50+ years! Your faith is strong and that is what you will need to carry you through the next few weeks and months. Trust me, it does get easier with time. Hold fast to those memories......I will call you soon. Love you!
