Ronald Fandrey Obituary

Well its been two years, I cannot believe we have been missing you for this long already. Time has flown like an eagle. I am keeping tabs on the reef, I hope you were happy with your final resting place at Biscayne Bay. The Neptune Memorial Reef is such a beautiful place.
I also hope that you are happy I got married on 10/20/2010 to Robert Dalton.
Amanda, Rhonda , Robbie and Serenity all talk about thie memories of you often, they are all doing wonderfully and they take very good care of me.
I love and miss my daddy very much and hope that you don't worry about us at all,we are all hanging in there and doing fine. I love you!!! Felicia

I don't know why I am mad at you...but I miss you dearly!

Hope the ocean keeps you warm. I love and miss you daddy. Hope you are proud of us! Love always, your little girl!

Well, today is one year since you have gone on to your next wild ride. My hope is that you are enjoying yourself, and learning all the things you didn't or couldn't here during your brief stay.

Love you...
Cammy

Ronnie,
Hard to believe that we have been without you for a whole year. Sometimes it seems like it was only yesterday.

Thank you and Darlene for raising 3 great daughters - they are truly a blessing to me and have been and will continue to be an integral part of my life.

Still miss you immensely, still want you here with me.

You will always be in my heart and head.

My love,
Karen

Hi Dad, Tomorrow it will be one year that we lost you and what a loss it has been. I sure should have visited more often and picked at your brain more when I was with you. I can't tell you what a rough year this has been. Thank you for everything that you taught me. You were a great daddy and a wonderful man. I was blessed to have you in my life. Thanks for helping me through that class so that I was able to see firsthand why you loved the ocean so much. Being able to place you at the Neptune Memorial Reef was an amazing experience and although I cannot make any more dives I cherish that I was able to learn and experience what you have been telling us for years was the most incredible place on earth. You were right as usual.
I miss you dad,, your girls are keeping in touch though and we are making sure Karen is ok ,, she is awesome and I love her very much.
Thanks for everything, hope you are enjoying your special view.

Forever Felicia xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoo

Hello! Nothing Wacky happened. How cool was is that his boat broke down...sorry folks, it's a private joke

What a great experience for the three of us Fandrey girls and Karen to have! The memorial in Florida was beautiful, and gave each of us and his friends Jeanie and Steve a wonderful way to say a final "goodbye", and share some wonderful days together that we might not have had otherwise. Although something tells me Dad hasn't waited around all these months for this little expedition, I'm certain he visisted us while we were there and thought it was a pretty cool thing to do. Rest easy, Dad. We all love and miss you! (And can you believe we didn't have not even one whacky incident happen the whole trip??? That is a first!)

Anyone who wants to see the placement of my dad at the Neptune Memorial Reef can view pics from the Miami trip last week at www.myspace.com/Feb67
We placed my dad in the reef since he was such a fan of scuba and he loved the Florida ocean so much. I made the dive personally. This was the most perfect place to forever be in the ocean he loved.

I know I didnt know Ron very well, BUT, the few times I saw him, he was a funny, friendly and very smart fellow. I always had a great time when I was around him and his loved ones. I met him through the OTHER Ron (Obbish) and I am Eddie's cousin.
May GOD bless and keep him and his family in these times of sorrow.

TO OUR DEAR ONES, WE ARE THINKING OF YOU WITH LOVE AND PRAYERS THAT GOD WILL BLESS YOU WITH HIS COMFORT AND PEACE. ALWAYS, ESTHER (FANDREY) SCHOONVELD AND FAMILY

To Fandry Family and loved ones
Condolences to all. Ronn will be missed by all his California Cousins. All the times we have been back to visit Ron he kept the laughs and smiles flowing. He was one happy person. Keep Ron's memories alive and share them when you can. He is truly missed by all of us.
Love Bill, Paul, David, Elizabeth, Barbara, George & Lisa

Ronn,
I'm not gonna get all mushy here because I know you would tell me to can it. Didn't we have some adventures!!!
I don't think anyone else saw things as funny as the two Rons; but after 50+ years, we kinda had it down.
You were truly a best friend and one of a kind.

Ronnie,
You are my best friend and my love. Thanks hon! You have given me so many "gifts" but by far the best (ok second best after your love) is my family - your daughters, sisters and friends. You know you always have my heart and my head.

Dear Grandpa,

I love and miss you SOOO much. I wont ever forget the GREAT times we've had =) You showed us all what a wonderful man u are and now its just time ta show everyone else. You can show them eagles how ta really fly, or at least show them the correct formula so they can figure it out...I'll be looking forward to flying with you when i get there, but until then i love you grandpa. And you'll always be in my heart

Love Always,
Rhonda Lynne
(your impostor granddaughter)

Well grandpa it was a struggle and you've won. Your now free to do all that you love. I'm glad your able to soar with the eagles and cook with the greatest!! I love you!

Well Grandpa even though I just got to spend some time getting to know you recently I love you. I also LOVE my raccoon!

Grandpa,

I'm really happy that i got the chance to know a person like you. It was never a dull moment. You were one of the funniest people I ever met. But then again, you were my "Uncle Grandpa". I love you Grandpa and I miss you greatly. And don't worry I will cherrish your ring forever. It means as much to me as it did to you..

always,
Your little sea monkey

Well, daddy, this is some serious stuff! You know I am the biggest crybaby you've met, so I'll keep this short. Thanks for everything! We have had so much fun! I hope you are soaring now! Thanks for all the laughs we have had...we will keep them all close to our hearts. I got the canoe thing down, I think I'll teach it to Steve when we get to the river. I love you dearly...you know. I'll be looking for the eagle...you are welcome any time. Love you my hero! Rhonda Lynn....your baby girl.

Fandrey Family,
Ronn was one hell of a guy. It's been some time since I had seen Ron, but I remember his sense of humor, his kind heart and his love of the sea. I hope your fond memories of your Dad/Brother will somehow give all of you peace and comfort. I'll miss you Ron.
Love

Uncle Ronn,
I'll never forget the time mom and I came to visit. We didn't have your number but she knew exactly where
to find you. We went to Dupage Inn and talked for hours. Afterward we went to your house where you
filled our car with canned food from your garden.

My mom loved and adored you and I know shes
thrilled to see you again. We however, will miss you. I love you dearly.

Camille, Felicia and Rhonda,

My prayers are with you. May you find some peace and comfort during this difficult time.

Hugs,
Betsy

You were always an interesting person Ron. I enjoyed the conversations we had at Burts home you will be missed by many. Our condolances to your loving family.

Grandpa,

I miss you lots. I'm glad your pain is gone and you can do all the things you like again. Love you

Daddy: Thank you for imparting the gift of a sense of humor, the love of a good book or a play, the appreciation for those who came before us, and for the time we spent together these last months. I'm really so greatful. I'm proud of the dignity you displayed during this battle from beginning to end, and I made sure you knew it. I love you, Daddy, and I miss you, but I also know you are on a boat somewhere warm, kicking back and fishing to your heart's content. No worries...we'll take care of Karen. Love from your oldest daughter...Cammy.

Ronn,
You will be greatly missed. I have many fond memories of you from taking me to see the bison, to fishing, to explaining nuclear reactions to me when I was like ten ha ha! I will miss all the garden goodies and watching you run around like a kid in a candy store on the Fourth of July. God must have needed your services to keep the rabbits out of the great garden in the sky. You will be missed!

God must have needed another good brother, going to miss you . Love Susan & Michael.

We were so sorry to hear of your loss. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to help at this time.

Dear Fandrey Family,
Please accept my condolences on the loss of your father.
Mike Kerr and family.

Ronn, I am thankful that I could visit you one last time back in October. I will treasure that last visit and your memory. Such a shame that you departed us so early, you will be missed by all.
Cousin Russ Green

Ronn, You will be remembered and missed by all your family and friends. You departed this life far too early,
Cousin Russ Green

Dear Uncle Ronn,
Tony & I will always remember our Thanksgiving with you at the Keys. I know how much you loved living there. I dream of you with the manatees & sea turtles and basking in the sun. Love you much!

You were a very interesting person, Ron. We enjoyed our many times together - especially camping and sitting around the campfires when all our kids were young. You will be missed greatly by your friends and family. Happy "sailing".

Dear Uncle,
May you carry the zest of adventure you had here on earth with you.
We all miss you so very much.
LOVE YOU,
Kathryn, Morris, Kalvin and Travis

Life just will never be the same for me. LOVE AND MISS YOU FOREVER.
You will be so proud of your loving Karen and beautiful daughters and families. Good fishing, good sailing, good food and drink now forever. LOVE ROBERTA

Sorry for your family's loss. I know you're consoled by the fact that his suffering has finally come to an end. Hoping you can find peace and comfort in your fond memories of a life well-lived.

Daddy, you are already very much missed. Thank you for everything. Hope the fishing is good. I love you. Felicia
