Some hearts are so beautiful that you wish you could protect them from the world. Even though I was younger, I often wished that for my brother and Ronnie. Ronnie was a gift to us. I enjoyed hearing him and my brother laugh and share stories. I was grateful for our conversations. He is always remembered, loved, and missed.

I have known Ronnie since his sophomore year at Gonzaga. He and my son, Brian, were very close friends. I have so many pleasant memories of Ronnie from his visits to lift weights at our house to him participating in Brian's wedding. Our hearts are broken. Peace and blessings to Leslie and the host of relatives and friends.
