I never knew Ronny real well, but I always considered him a good friend. We played football together at Raa Jr. High. He played running back and was very good. Big, strong, fast and reliable. I never heard Ronny complain about anything. He was soft spoken, kind and always willing. I have only good memories of Ronny Golden. He will not be forgotten.
Allan and I were shocked to hear about Ronald's passing. Please know that all the Golden family is in our thoughts and prayers. It seems like it wasn't all that long ago that Martha Ann was in our wedding, Barry was in elementary school, Ronald was in high school and Billy was flying helicopters over in Vietnam Nam - so many great Holly Hills neighborhood memories. Love you all. Ann and Allan Ragsdale
The last I saw Ronnie was in 2003. We had an EARLY breakfast at the Village Inn with Tom Burke’s and Judd Allen. I guess we were trying to relive one of these old moments, like breakfast after a long night of partying. Ron was always a funny and upbeat guy. He will be missed.
Ronald was my childhood neighbor and friend. He was so strong and athletic early on, yet so shy and gentle in his manner and demeanor. There was no sport he could not excel at, yet I remember him best shimmying up a pine tree or telephone pole, or jumping off his roof with glee. I am so deeply saddened by his passing, and I send all my deepest sympathy to the Golden family as they mourn the loss of their dear brother, son, and uncle. Sincerely, Jane Mostoller.
Ronnie was a classmate of mine at Godby. Not only did his premature gray hair make him memorable but also his gentle manner. He was funny, kind and caring to all. Ran into him many times throughout the years and he always had a smile. His father was our “big” boss when I started with Dept of Ed years ago. My prayers are with his family and his many friends. Gone too soon Ronnie.
