Print Obituary & Condolences
I have been friends with Ronnie since kindergarten at St Anthony School in Rockford Il. We were able to keep that friendship for all of these years. Even though he is with Rose and Jonathan now Rita and I will miss him.
Our regrets to you Jason and to all of the Valentine family.
Our deepest condolences to Ron’s family and loved ones. We always enjoyed his wonderful sense of humor and fun loving attitude. He was a joy to be around and we will miss him.
I knew Ron in the early 60’s he was a
great guy and a true Italian and gentleman. I knew his mother, a wonderful woman. My sympathy to the family for your loss.
Jason-
On behalf of all of us that had the pleasure of working with your Mom at Heller Financial, we extend our deepest sympathy.
Jason,
Your Dad was one of the greatest people I had the pleasure to call my dear friend for nearly 30 years. I will miss his smile, his sense of humor and his kindness, most of all. He touched so many people with his giving nature and enriched the lives he touched. It was a privilege and honor to be his friend.
Your Dad was great…he always told us cornball jokes that we loved and even though we had a professional relationship I always considered him our friend. I’m shocked and sadened.
