"My sincere sympathy at the loss of our cousin Ronnie. He was always the life of the party at our Berkland reunions. I have fond memories of him visiting the farm when we were young. He could always make us smile. I am so sorry I cannot be with you today to celebrate his life, but I hold you close in my heart and pray that your memories comfort you!❤️"
