the house enjoying each others company. Visits from his two daughters always led
to laughter and stories, keeping the time precious and dear. They truly loved their
“Poppy”. Ronald John Schriver lived 87 years young, he died peacefully at home

A heart that was purer than gold:

His memory will never grow cold.
