Ronald Allen (Ronnie) Ritter, Jr. was born February 17, 1979, in Donalsonville, Georgia, to Ronald Allen (Ronnie) Ritter, Sr. and Kathy Trotman Ritter. Ronnie was a jokester and would find humor in the most serious circumstances. He loved talking to and being with people. He was a gifted musician and loved music. Children seemed to flock to him. Ronnie dearly loved God and his family, especially his mother. It has been said he might have been his mother’s favorite. The family said he fought as hard as he loved.

He was preceded in death by his sister, Janice Marie Ritter, daughter, Alaina Ritter, his maternal and paternal grandparents, and several aunts and uncles.

It saddens me to have lost Ronnie Allen at such a young age, especially. My thoughts and prayers go out to Ronnie SR, Cathy, and the rest of the family.
I remember when Ronnie Allen at the young age of four or five, would wake me up on a Saturday morning around 8:00, playing a set of pots and pans in the yard at my window. I can not say I was happy about it at the time, but Ronnie went on to be a great musician. As he grew up, we would get together and jam until 2 or 3 in the morning. All great memories. He always just called me UNC, short for uncle. He will be missed.
Prayers of comfort for all of you.

You touched many lives as I have been told. Go rest high in Gods mountain now and know you are missed by all. ♥️ when you see Larry hug him for
Me. ♥️♥️
