When i came to Howardwick, Ronnie was the first person i met. I approached him and asked if he could help me unload a piano from a rented truck. Ronnie apologized, told me he couldn't help, but wished he could. I eventually found someone else to help unload, but soon after, Ronnie, Janny and myself and my wife became friends and got to know several of the Longan/Robinson clan. I would greet Ronnie, without knowing his real background with "Hey, Cowboy!" with which he would light up the room with his smile. i wish I had known him longer, but what little time I did have the pleasure of his acquaintance he became my brother and I will forever cherish his friendship.
