Kay sorry for your loss. I had the privilege of knowing Ronnie when i was growing up in New Deal and going to church with his family

We are so sorry to hear this sad news about Ronnie. We were there at Oak Hills when he came to be the youth minister, back when we were all in our twenties probably. Those were good days and we were sorry when he left. May God comfort and support all you who are left missing him.

My sincere condolences to Kay and the family. Ronnie helped us in a time of great need with compassion and great sensitivity. I appreciated his Christian character and the love he showed his church family. He is always remembered with deep appreciation. May God grant All the family strength in this time of loss. I have every confidence we'll meet again in the house of our God.

I am so sorry to hear about Ronnie's passing. I had the privilege of meeting Ronnie several years ago when he volunteered his time and talent to help me with some prolife issues. His assistance and guidance were a true testimony to his Christian faith and sense of justice. May he rest in peace. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

My deepest sympathy is extended to Ronnie Agnew's family at his untimely passing. I had the privilege of knowing and working with him before I retired as a Legal Secretary at the law firm of McWhorter, Cobb and Johnson in 1991. His devotion to the practice of law has surely left a mark on the Lubbock community.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
