4 years later and it still seems like yesterday...there isn't a day that goes by that you are not in the back of my mind. You are still so missed and will always be. But I know you are in heaven watching over all of us and knowing we are doing what you wanted us to do when you where here. We have taken care of your team and we have helped to develop good people to be good staffers just like you always wanted for your people. Our goal was always to take care of your team for this will always be your team! You would be so proud of how far some of them have come. We're also checking in on your family like we promised we would and so glad we still have that connection. But just know you are missed dearly wish you were here. Luv ya Ms. Ronnie someday we'll see each other again!!!

I cannot believe it's been four years since Ronnie passed away. I remember her thoughtfulness for others and her high energy - she made me tired just watching her being a busy bee-working as fast as possible. She was always willing to help anybody who asked. She loved her family so much and she was definitely the proud momma of the four kids. She was always bragging about each and every one of them. She always bragged about her "Joe Bear" too-she loved him so much as well.
Hopefully she will be waiting for me when it comes my time so we can continue our friendship up above in heaven.
Miss you Ronnie

Hey Ronnie-I can't believe it has been three years since your passing. There have been so many times where I have wanted to call you (still have your phone number saved) to chit chat but realize you are no longer on this earth so I communicate with you through prayer. We will see each other again one day. You are definitely missed.

Ronnie, you are truly missed.  
We pray for your family and ask God to comfort them.
May they feel your presence as you watch over them.  
To our beautiful cousin an Angel in heaven we send our love.

I cannot believe it has been a year since Ronnie passed away. It seems just like yesterday that she and I had a conversation. She is constantly on my mind cuz she worked under me whenI was at AFPC and she sought my guidance even after I left. She had a great soul and cared about all employees she supervised.

Just wanted to express my sincere condolences.   Ronnie was a wonderful person with a beautiful heart.   I can't think of my brother,  Raul,  without thinking of her as well.  

May she Rest in her eternal reward.  She taught me crafts. She was always kind to me.. My deepest condolences 

Peterson Family, 

I'm very sadden by the news of Ronnies' passing. My prayers and thought are with you during this difficult time. Ronnie will surely be missed. She was definitely a gift to me as well as all of those she came in contact with! She was very loving and friendly to everyone and well respected. I will forever cherish the memory of her and the last words she spoke to me as one of the best supervisors I've had. 

We are so sorry for your loss. Ronnie was loved and respected by everyone.  We cherished her friendship and she holds a special place in our hearts.  Her kindness and humility left a huge imprint on the lives of those she touched.  She loved her family and was so proud of them. Rest on peace special lady.  We love you.

Our Sweet Ronnie, 

Although we never actually met in person, I spent many many hours on the phone with you.  You became such a close friend and I will truly miss you.  Thank you for always taking the time to share your knowledge and to just laugh with me.  You were an angel on earth and now that you have gained your angel wings I know that you will be watching over all of your family and friends.  We love you Ronnie! We will see you again in heaven my sweet friend!

My deepest condolences to Ronnie’s family. I was surprised and saddened by her passing. I had the great privilege of working with Ronnie at Kelly AFB prior to the base closure. She was always positive and helped everyone who needed assistance. I know she made life at work much more enjoyable. Although we lost touch, I have always remembered her as one of the kindest people in the group. My prayers go out to all who loved her. I know she will be missed. God keep all of you in the palm of his hand.

Peterson Family-

What a blessing for us at AFPC to have had Ronnie share her expertise and time with your family and our AFPC family.   She was truly a friend to me in sharing her HR knowledge and family experiences with me.  I worked with her almost 20 yrs ago on Eastern Division.   I guess over the years we became what you might call "parking buddies."   We came in to work at a later shift at the same time and left way after "Retreat and to the Colors" was played or in the dark of the night.    We shared fond memories of our trials and tribulations with work and family and shared our funny memories as well.  We prayed every evening there we would not run across any skunks near the Airman Leadership School building where we often parked by.  We prayed no skunks would be under our cars as well.   Ronnie is and always will be a great person as a friend, co-worker, and supervisor and always watched out for her AFPC team  members.    Bless you dear Ronnie and your family-another angel is up there in heaven looking at us all-Rest in Peace and we will miss you very much until we meet again . 

Ronnie, every time I hear "Retreat and to the Colors" and "Taps" I will remember and say a prayer - Ronnie-We Salute You!!

 Always-Amanda and Terry Lee and Lee Family

Dearest Peterson and Lopez Family,

I  am so sorry for your loss of our beautiful Ronnie. She has always been a great loving friend. 
I didn’t get to see Ronnie often for our lives took us in different directions, but I always knew if I needed her she was always a phone call away. 
Ronnie’s life was a blessing, her memory a treasure, she was loved beyond words and will be missed forever. RIP sweet friend. 

                          Love, 
                          Cindy Hinojosa Hammons

I am SO SORRY for you loss!  When I think about Ronnie, I first remember her always talking about her family.  She was so proud of her children and you could tell her family was her priority.  From a work perspective, I will always remember how passionate she was about taking care of her team and wanting to ensure we took the time to allow for training.  We will miss her smile, generosity, concern for others and her passion for doing things correctly in Human Resources for the Air Force.  
Praying for you and your family. Sincerely, Sonja Crownover

Mr. & Mrs. Lopez, I am so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my prayers and have my deepest sympathy. Ronnie was literally the best of us. She never said a mean word about anyone and was always there with a helping hand. I remember playing with her at St. Francis and throughout St. Mary’s and Reicher. My heart hurts for you but I know she’s watching all of you from heaven.

Words cannot even begin to express my condolences to the family. I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to work by Ronnie’s side. We spent many evenings working late. She was one of the most knowledgeable staffers at AFPC. Too many times people sought her out for assistance because they knew she’d have the right answer. She was too kind of a person to tell people she had her own work to get done. Her beautiful smile and loving ways always come out. The greatest part about working for her was she made everyone on her team feel a part of a big family. She called us Wingmen when we were really her children. She always spoke about her family with such pride and admiration. Her cute nickname, Joe Bear to Jaquelyn’s goats. The way she always said, “John-Robert!” To visiting the family in Waco. We used to kid about taking the weekend and going to visit her mom and dad, sisters, nieces and nephews to hang out with her. We used to decorate the office for the holidays and she would come and start putting things out. I’d come and move them around. She always said that her sister would do the same thing to her. She had the biggest heart. My fondest memory was when O’Conner played Clemens High School football. She was on visitor side and I was on home. We kept texting each other back and forth acting like we were high school rivals. I will always cherish the fun we had. Now I know God has her by his side smiling down on us. 

Good-by to a very sweet and considerate ex-co worker. I will always remember that beautiful smile and the very first day we started at AFPC.  You will be missed dearly.

Sincerely,
Tina

Joe, Jacquelyn, John, Randy, & Justin,

Know that I am with you in heart & spirit  throughout this moment of grief...my deepest sympathy...

We'll miss Ronnie's physical presence, but our wonderful memories of her will live on with us forever...

I witnessed Ronnie touched the lives of many of her AFPC colleagues with her welcoming demeanor, her staffing wit, and most of all, her humor...her challenge remains for us - to be the best Staffer we can be;  and to extend kindness to one another.

You may join me in prayer:
Eternal rest grant unto Ronnie, O' Lord
And let perpetual light shine upon her
May she rest in peace
Amen.

My Beloved Sister Friend...I'll never ever forget you....thank you for the love...



Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
I wish you healing and peace.  God bless. 

Peterson Family -
I am so sorry for the loss of Ronnie! She was an extremely caring and amazing person! Her smile was so heartfelt and her positive attitude is one I will never forget! Every year I have done “Operation Warm Heart” at Thanksgiving to provide non-perishable food items, gift cards, and other items to Air Force Airman in need. EVERY SINGLE YEAR Ronnie signed her team up for two full loaded boxes! Ronnie went above and beyond and provide many extra items! Her huge boxes were decorated so beautifully and always had a giant bow on top that were beautiful! But this is EXACTLY who Ronnie was, always giving and truly caring about others! God Bless all of you, my prayers will continue for the months ahead! 

Peterson Family - I had the pleasure of working with Ronnie during our time in AFPC Eastern Division.  It was crazy during that time with many of us learning to be personnel specialists.  I’m an AF brat and have family in the Waco area and when I got to know Ronnie and learned she was from Waco I got excited!  I was working with her when she learned she was expecting and she was blessed with her daughter Jackie!  I’ll remember Ronnie’s smile and her caring personality.  My deepest sympathy for your loss.  I’m thankful to have met Ronnie.  🙏

Joe and Family, I am so sorry to hear of Ronnie’s passing. I pray for God to surround you with His peace and comfort at this time. I had the pleasure of working with Ronnie at AFPC. She had a heart of gold, always willing to help others. She made a positive impact on all who knew her. She will be greatly missed. 

I was very sadden to hear of Ronnie's going home.  She was  a wonderful person with a beautiful smile and heart.  May the heavenly love and comfort of the holy spirit surround you all as you go through this new chapter of life without this beautiful woman.  I know she loved you all very much for she spoke of her terrific family several times to me.  My prayers and thoughts are with you all and my God continue to bless you and lift you up.  Take care.

Peterson Family, 
Sharing my memories of respect and enjoyment working with Ronnie at AFPC/Eastern Division.  She was a light and inspiration to me.  I'm blessed to have worked with her.  

My prayers are with you.   

Sending my love and prayers to your family! Ronnie is a positive delightful lady who excelled at helping others! May God bless you and help you during these times. We love and appreciated working with Ronnie ❤️

This is so sad to hear the passing of another AFPC family member. My condolences to the family and may God comfort them during  this time of sorrow.  I did not know her personally but I would see her around AFPC, especially at Commander's call.  She was someone that would light up the room w/her infectious smile.  She will truly be missed by so many that knew her, especially her team.    May she rest in peace.

Joe, I have so many memories of Ronnie growing up. We were always known as Ronnie & Lisa, Yvette & Yvonne. We would always tell our cousins from Indiana that our names were always state names. Not sure why. We would all walk home together after school when it was Aunt Lupe’s turn to pick us up from school but we would stop at Coca-Cola first to get a drink from Uncle Robert cause he worked there. When he was not there We would have to borrow money from Ronnie to pay for our drinks and I tell you she never forgot how much we owed her.  Ronnie was always the tough/strong one out of us. She loved to cook and we loved eating her food. She loved letting her dog chase Yvette. Okay, we all loved that because we all had a great laugh. Ronnie was always a great listener, friend because she had a heart of Gold. I will always have a missing part in my heart for Ronnie and will always remember my beautiful cousin. 
Love you all,
Bonnie (Yvonne) Villarreal 

Joe and family, I am so sorry to hear of Ronnie's passing. I worked with Ronnie for many years in Personnel at AFPC until my retirement in 2016.  I really enjoyed her humor and stories about the cattle in Waco.  She was such a nice person and I am sure her team will miss her dearly.  May God bless you and your family during this time. 🌹

Ronnie was a delight and a ray of sunshine to everybody who came in her path. I am so proud of her and the personnelist she turned out to be. She was part of my team during my tenure at AFPC and was a quick learner. She was always willing to  take the time to help anybody.  I just can't believe she's gone. She will truly be missed by so many people. May she rest in peace.  Until we meet again.

My deepest condolences to the family, my heart breaks for you.  Ronnie, I will miss our talks about high school marching bands and your love for them.    I will miss all our special talks we would have and all the advice and help you gave me. You were a very loving and kind person.  May you Rest In Peace.
