My condolences to Ronnie's family , I have known him and his wife for a lot of years and Ronnie was a great person who would help anybody he could. He had a big heart and I know he loved his wife and daughter. They are having a rough time I know, and I am saddened that they have to go through this right now. I know it's hard. To a soul gone too soon, rest in peace my friend and keep a watch over your girls. You will be missed daily. My prayers to all his family as they lay him to rest.
