Ronny was born Sept. 16, 1935, in Mexia, to Floyd Duke, of Mexia, and Jane Duke, of Odessa. He proudly served his country in the U.S. Air Force for nine years; the love and patriotism for his country remained true throughout his life. He was a retired employee of Texas Instruments.

Ronny’s family was the light of his life; he loved nothing more than spending time with them. He was also very creative and could build or fix most anything.
