Born in New Orleans, LA in 1942, Ronnie was a true son of the sea. As a commercial fisherman, he navigated the waters with skill and passion, casting his nets far and wide. The ocean was his second home, where he found solace and purpose. But Ronnie was more than just a fisherman; he was a master craftsman. With rough hands and a gentle touch, he sculpted wonders from wood, creating heirlooms that will be treasured for generations to come. A free spirit at heart, he found joy in the simple pleasures of life. Ronnie could be found in his beloved RV, exploring the great outdoors with his beautiful wife by his side. Camping under the stars, sharing stories around the campfire, he cherished these moments of connection and camaraderie. A true jack of all trades, he approached every challenge with enthusiasm and determination. Rest in peace, dear Ronnie. Your legacy will forever inspire us to live life to the fullest and cherish every moment we are given.
