The world has lost was a great man! I worked with Ronnie for over 20 years, he was a dedicated employee with a big heart, always treated his peers with respect and a characteristic smile, he spoke highly of his family and worked hard for them, he will be missed by all of us that had the blessing to work with him. Good bye my friend!!! Stu
I never taught in a million years that this will be the way that I say my "goodbyes" to you Ronnie!! I grew up with you and your family, I just remember all of the old days!! Riding motorcycles, picking peas, eating green fresh tomatoes, watermelon with the juice streaming down our arms and me Pat fighting and racing all the time. It was all of your brothers including you that help me along the way, even though I was the "only" girl! You all made me tough and rough!! But this is the reason why I'm so strong headed now. You will truly be missed by aka NA-NA! I love you Ronnie!!! "Goodbye" for now may you rest in peace forever!!! Tyesha S. Spratling
