Ronnie Hawkins

Donna and family, our heartfelt sympathy and prayers as we remember the days of working with Ronnie at Sheridan Schools. May the Lord bless you and give you peace.

Ronnie was a very special friend. He touched many lives. One day Stuart came home from a softball practice that Ronnie had coached. He said, “That is the most fun I have ever had at a practice.” I think that described Ronnie perfectly. He was a great coach and most of all, he made things fun. I have wonderful memories from the time times I worked with him. I am very sorry for your loss.

Enjoyed umpiring with Ronnie. Arkansas softball has lost a dedicated umpire. I know he will be missed.

Praying for your family during this time of loss. Coach was a very courageous man and I have the upmost respect for him and how he assisted our students at Jessieville School. He touched the lives of so many of our young and his blessing cherished.

Donna and family, I am so sorry to hear of Ronnie's passing. May God give you all peace and comfort in the days, weeks and months to come. Love, Carolyn Martin

My thoughts and prayers are with each and everyone of Ronnie's family, especially Donna. I have always thought the world of Ronnie and Donna.

RIP my dear friend. Love you all!!!!

I worked my first college game with you and I was very nervous..it was awesome having you as a mentor RIP Ronnie Hawkins

Best Regards , My name is Dennis Kessen and I just wanted to share my thoughts with you. I moved to HSV about five years ago. One of my first activities was playing pickleball at the Desoto courts. Ronnie was so friendly and helpful to everyone , I was extremely impressed because he was a much better player than the others ! Then later when I saw the request for carpool assistance for his treatments in Little Rock , I volunteered ! This is when I had the opportunity see a real religious , humble , and family-man ! My only regret is not having the opportunity to know him better and share our life experiences ! May his spirit rest in eternal peace !

Donna,Sandy,and Sean so sorry for your loss Ronnie was one of the best coaches I ever had and tought me a lot about life.I still miss all the good times and championships we won.May god bless you all through this difficult time.

I have so many good memories of being around Coach whether it was at school in gym or our teams trying to make nationals. He was a good man and heaven is getting a great one.

Sandy, I am so sorry to hear about your father. I am out of state now but wanted you to know you are in my thoughts. This is the time to gather all those great memories and concentrate on them. Hang on . Love and prayers, Babs

So sorry to hear this sad news. Donna, haven’t seen you in years but you and family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Coach was a good fellow who inspired athletes to do their best and do it for joy. Joy is what he had for life, family and friends. He taught both of our children and speak affectionately of Coach Hawkins. May the family be comforted by memories and God's love and strength.

Very sorry for your loss. I hope you can find some comfort from the words at Psalms 147:3 that says; "He is healing the broken hearted ones and is binding up their painful spots." God as the hearer of prayer will comfort you in the days ahead as you remember Mr. Hawkins.
