Ronna leaves behind many special friends including her caregivers, Melody Beres, Amy, Shirley, and Melody M. She was a very special person with a heart of gold, kindhearted and helped anyone who needed her. Ronna would always want to do chores at home and at the Phoenix Center as “nobody does it like I did it”. She enjoyed picnics, bowling in the Special Olympics, eating out with sister and friends. She also enjoyed her “family” at the AFC home. Ronna always had a smile on her face and was a very happy soul. She will be missed by many at Northpointe (her case managers were Denise and Deb W). Ryan Funeral Home of Calumet, MI is serving the family. Graveside Services are scheduled for May, 2023.
