Ronnie honorably served his country in the United States Army for 20 years, retiring as a Sergeant First Class. As a Signal Corps specialist, he was stationed at various locations throughout his distinguished career, including Panama, Germany, and West Point, where he concluded his service. His dedication, discipline, and patriotism were evident in all he did.

Ronnie will be remembered for his steadfast love for his family, his strong sense of duty, and the quiet strength that defined his life. He leaves behind a legacy of honor, loyalty, and devotion that will live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
