    Dear Pruett Family, I was was so sorry to here of Ronnie's passing. He and my step father Jimmy Weathers were best of friends back years ago. Ronnie really was a good person who I have known most of my life. He let me use his 77 mustang to go to my 1979 senior prom with because my car was to ugly to take a girl out in. I remember and will always cherrish the many funny stories involving Ronnie in our younger days. He is one of the few people I can honestly say I respected and had the honor to know. May he be greeted by God and may God be with all of you. Sencerely Roy Campbell

    Dear Family: During this time of great sorrow, may it comfort you to know that others are deeply touched by your loss. I, too, know the pain of losing someone dear. Even though our hearts are broken, rest assured that our Grand Creator cares about you personally (1 Peter 5:7) and can help you through this difficult time. Revelation 21:4 speaks of a time soon when God will do away with death forever. There will be no more sorrow, heartache, or pain. May your happy memories and sure scriptural hope comfort your hearts during this painful time.
