Ronnie is and forever will be my loved uncle! There are few words I can find to express the pain and devastation I am feeling from watching my uncle leave my family and I. The only solace I can come to is some people are just too good hearted for this world and he by far is one. I am so proud of my uncle and was always excited to introduce anyone I know to him. Hes the reason I love the smell of tires anf grease, he's the reason my family stuck together after we lost my grandfather, hes the reason I could finish my college degree, hes the reason my family has a roof over their heads, hes the reason I want to do right by everyone I meet because he always tried to. Hed give you the shirt off his back, grease stains and all. He made me laugh with all his crazy sound effects and crude humor. I love him far too much for anyone to ever fully understand. He is one of my role models although he thought I was nuts for saying that. There are very few people on this planet with the golden heart and work ethic he had. I can't even accept the idea of speaking of him in the past tense because loosing him is unthinkable. I cherish every laugh, hug, tear, and smile we shared...and I know we do share them again some day.
