 Ronnie was a great family man and a loving father. He met his wife, Robyn, at school in 1973, and later married her in 1992. The  couple then created a blended family with their daughters, Rebecca, Amber, and Aurora. Their home was full of wisdom, love, l aughter and support. Ronnie was an incredible father figure for not just his children, but for their friends as well. Ronnie had many  adopted daughters, and made a point to always be present in the lives of those he loved.

 Ronnie wanted to be remembered for his sense of humor and love for family and friends. When anyone needed him, he would jump!  He was loyal and trustworthy, and he will be missed by those he leaves behind. He was a man of many talents and interests. He  was a talented artist, and had a deep love for music and singing, which he instilled in his children. Ronnie also loved cars, and  always dreamed of having his own restoration garage. He was loved unconditionally by many people who made time to be present in his life.
