He was a great provider for his family. He loved working with his hands and could repair anything. Ronald rooted for the NY Mets, Brooklyn Dodgers and Coney Island Cyclones. He was an avid fan of Elvis Presley, cars, and all animals, especially cats, dogs and sea otters he saw in Alaska. He cared greatly for the family pets over the years, including Lucky, Lady, Sparky, Chestnut, Mindy and Minx.
He was an active member of the South Reformed Church, Bay Ridge United Church, Fourth Avenue Presbyterian Church of Brooklyn. He was proud to be a Veteran. He marched in the Memorial Day Parade with Heather's Girl Scout Troop. He loved his family and friends deeply, and will be missed by all.
Please have a cup of tea and a shortbread cookie in honor of Ronald Williams.
