I haven't seen Ronnie in years. However, I remember, with much fondness, his fun loving personality. I treasure the years we spent playing basketball and baseball. May God's peace rest on the Nichols family.##imported-begin##Wally Edge##imported-end##
I was very sorry to hear about Ronnie's illness and death. I was ahead of him in school, but we dated awhile in high school and renewed our acquaintance later on after being out of school awhile. I hadn't seen him in many years, but offer my condolences to his family. I'm sure he will be sorely missed.##imported-begin##Pam Fitzsimmons Glasscock##imported-end##

It's been a long time since I've seen Ronnie, but we rode the same school bus for many years. I still remember his making all the girls giggle on those bus rides...I was one of them. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. God bless you,

The Craver family and the Nichols family were neighbors during our very early years. Ronnie played for the Braves and I played for the Pirates during our Little League careers.His career was much better than mine. One hot summer evening, Coy was taking us to the ball park and let us ride in the back of the truck. He had told us when we arrived "Don't jump out of the pickup until I am completely stopped!" Guess what? We arrived at the ball park on that oily parking lot and guess who "jumped" out of the back of the truck before it stopped? Ronnie. And somehow, one of the back rear tires caught Ronnies pants leg and scared him to death. I was hollering and screaming for Coy to stop. Coy jumps out of the truck, checks on Ronnie and the only thing hurt was his lily white baseball britches and his ears after the scolding that he took from Coy. Lots of memories of the "old" neighborhood;Ronnie, Ronnie Morrison, and I, but some of those are just "memories." Ronnie was quiet a guy, but always a Friend.

I was very sorry to hear about Ronnie's passing. I have many fond memories of Ronnie through our years together at Pine Tree. The last time I saw Ronnie was at our 20th class reunion and he was just as energetic and as much fun then as he was back in school. He will definately be missed...by his family, by his friends, and by his Pine Tree Pirate class mates.##imported-begin##Gary Ferguson##imported-end##
