April 18, 2012 at 10:39 amI am sorry to hear of Ronnie’s passing. Some of you may have forgotten that Ronnie was an accomplished musician, singer and song writer. I first met Ronnie and his musical partner Kipp Brown in the summer of 1978 while producing and directing a public access TV show. I have posted one of Ronnie’s performances on You Tube.
