Ronnie oh Ronnie.. we had a good run as brother and sister.. I truly wish I wasnt leaving a message.. I guess I can consider this a text message. Thank you for some of the things you have done.. you listened when you needed too.. gave some good advice.. made sure to tell me make sure you leave good foot prints.. you made sure you had a connection with the Lord.. I hope a pray you made your peace with the Heavenly Father, and when its all said and done he grants you favor and says ENTER IN.. rest now , your work here is done. May your foot prints carry on, and someone learned something from you.. You had a genuine spirit. As mom would call you PAPPY. You will be missed.our ending wasnt the greatest due to circumstances, but you were still my big brother.. love you, your lil sis Marva Fife
