I feel great sadness to learn of Ronnie's passing. It was my good fortune to have worked with him for over 10 years. He was a meticulous gardener and a conscientious foreman. His work ethics were well respected.

He was a good friend who could make you laugh at your worse times. I will miss that southern drawl.

GO DALLAS!

Love, Barb & Jim Hatty

I was fortunate enough to be Ron and Donna's next door neighbor for 18 yrs. Ron was a great guy and I'm glad to have known him. He always had a smile and a kind word. I can attest to his love for the Cowboys as I am also a devoted fan! We would wear our Dallas shirts and make the Eagles fans crazy! Rest in peace my friend. Love and sincere sympathy to Donna and family. xo

Ronnie, you fought a long, hard battle and you will be greatly missed. I've been a co-worker and great friend of Ronnie's for 18 years at All Seasons where he was a very meticulous, hard worker and took pride in everything he did. He would make me laugh every time I saw him. Thanks for the good times and friendship, Ronnie. I am going to miss having lunch with you at the bottom of the Rocky steps. "Go Eagles!" Your good friend, Matt

I was greatly saddened to received Donna’s call with the news that my dear friend of 50+ years was no longer with us. My first boyfriend (if 5th grade counts!), then a dear friend from then on…Ronnie was truly one of the good guys. Not just me, but my Mother and sisters, all remember him for his friendly, honest, positive nature. Donna, I was so happy when you guys made the trip back to Dallas for one of our high school reunions. I know you remember how all his old friends were delighted to see him again, and to be able to reconnect after too many years away. The subsequent visits and telephone conversations were always special for me. He would brag about Donna going back to school to get her degree and tell me about the kids/grandkids, even though I did not know them. I have to say that it was comforting to know that he had the good sense to remain a Cowboys fan while living with the enemy (sorry, Eagles fans…had to say it!). There are so many happy memories over so many years. I will remember always…Rest in Peace, my friend.

glad to have known you ronnie, you will be missed greatly,

Ronnie will be truly missed, as both a friend and an employee. Ronnie always had a great attitude in life and the work place. He always made me laugh with his Texan humor. Always had a great work ethic and was the most meticulous employee when working in the landscapes. He had a way with plants and its surrounding nature like no other. Our company never had a customer dissatisfied with his work or crew. I will always have a special place in my heart for him. I will miss you Ron, Steve

you will be missed so dearly and wish I could have had the chance to get to know you more. you are loved and memories with you will always be cherished.

Ronnie was always a kind and caring guy.We will remember him fondly. Sending loving prayers to his family.Goodbye sweet friend until we me again.

I so miss working with Ron on the premiere public landscapes in Philadelphia. He was adept in his understanding of horticulture and landscape maintenance. His determination to continue employment in the face of chronic illness was evident in the last few years. I admire him for his endurance and his strength.

Ron also had empathy for those less fortunate. He was concerned for the homeless people he encountered in his work,and he encouraged them to keep the landscapes they used as their homes in top condition.

Ron had a great sense of humor, and he loved to tell stories. He kept work in perspective and helped me to do the same.

Ronnie will be missed.

The way Ron is smiling on this picture is the way we will always remember him. He was our neighbor for many years and he was a good one. He will be missed.

From the time we first met when I was seventeen you were a caring, kind, person and very handsome too. I took you to my senior prom with out my parents knowing till our wedding October nineteenth nineteen ninety seven we shared so many good times together. We had our ups and downs. I have been reminiscing through so many pictures and albums.

You are truly the most Loving, caring husband, father and grandfather anyone could have.

You fought a long hard battle with cancer and several types. But you would always pursue and overcome what was dealt to you. You would then beat this terrible beast and go back to work as if you never left. You would continue to plug away no matter what. I don't know if I myself could ever be as strong and humorous + strong as you.

I knew this day would arrive but we are never prepared. I brought you home from the hospital when I observed you on strong meds and restrained and hallucinating it broke my hear to see you that way. So I brought you home and gave you the utmost care anyone could have asked for. your sons, daughter and grandchildren + Bailey of course was by your side every minute of every hour daily.

God brought you home peacefully and your family was present your favorite music. During that time it began to snow + was extremely beautiful outside. I was an extremely remarkable ambiance and aura. Witnessed by all who were present.

You will Truly be missed by all you knew in some special way. There will never be a day that goes by that I wont think of you. You are my rock and best friend. And I hope you will watch over me.

I thank you for twentyseven

years we shared together. I have endured may losses, so far yours will be the hardest one to go through.

You are at peace in heaven no pain + suffering with family, friends and God

by your side.

We Love you dearly and will miss you always.

Love Donna + Bailey
