Ronnie was a true patriot and loved his country.
Condolences to all of Ronnies family, which includes our mutual cousins the Haddix's. Only met Ronnie a few times, he was a great guy. He asked me why we weren't cousins too? I explained it, and he replied “nah,that don't matter, we're cousins too” And I know he helped look out for our cousin Sammy Haddix after our Aunt Rosalie and Uncle Johnny Haddix passed away. A good man and Patriot gone to soon.

Condolences to Ron's family. I'm a second cousin through Ron's grandmother Conderi. I met Ron one time but we exchanged letters and cards for years concerning information about our family. I agree with other writers, the Ron I knew was a true patriot who loved his country and I'm proud to say he was my friend.
I want to get e-mail, or mailing addresses, of Ron's siblings and descendants because I have two 100 year old photos of Ron's grandmother Conderi's parents and grandparents that I'd like to send you.

Please accept my condolences. I am a classmate of Eddie and knew Ronnie as we grew up not too far from each other. Although I have not seen the family in many years I have so many fond memories. I am truly sorry for your loss.
I am very thankful for memories. God sure is gathering in his angels. Rest In Peace Ronnie
I met Ronnie years ago. His Bro. Mitch was in my class. Great guys, sorry to hear of your loss.. will be thought of forever…….Gina (Shanabarger) Moening
