Uncle Ronnie I’m sorry it took so long to get a photo of you to add to this page. But now everyone can put a face with that name. You have always been my hero and the foot steps I wanted to follow in. I wish you would have been still around to see me through my 32 years of Law Enforcement. I have met many of your fellow workers over the years, and every one of them had nothing but great things to say about you. Thank you for being that Godfather that I could look up to.
