You could feel his kind heart through his voice. He loved animals, had style and, only listened to good music. The kind of person you would want as your best friend, the best listener, always knew what to say to make me smile. You were super sweet and a lot of rock n’ roll, the perfect balance. A super cool Dad. I will always be proud that I’m your daughter.

Ronnie, we were together for 13 years and shared so much. I miss you terribly and wish things would have ended differently. I feel your loss down in the deepest depths of my heart and soul. I pray you and Scooby are reunited as was your wishes. I hope you have found peace and I will see you again, as you were my soulmate. I love you. Always have, always will.
