Ronnie and I go way back during the 70's. We partied and worked construction around Louisiana. Then we became family. Most of the time he called me brother in law, always with that upbeat smile. Many years passed very quickly and Ronnie and I lost touch. Our boy Glynn would keep us updated about life happenings. I truly will miss Ronnie and his charm. He was full of life and a true friend. God Bless you Brother-In-Law.

We feel grateful to have (re)met Ronnie on Paradise Road. We both knew him in school and were very surprised to see him again. He was a great bouree player and tried not to miss a game - and he was a lucky devil - took everyone's money to put in the little green pig. He was also a faithful member of the Sunday Morning Worship at Manny's. We'll miss you, guy.
