My sincere condolences to the family of Ronald Earl. He meant a lot to my family. He was always ready o help us in any way he could. I called him, “MY Woody Butler” He could repair and fix anything he put his hands on. My husband was a friend of his and he loved him and believed that if anything needed attention in and around the house or yard, he needed Ronald Earl. Ronald Earl was truly family to the Pullens. The family is truly in our prayers.

I don’t know where to began, whew, I am going to miss you. You wasn’t related to us Pullen’s, but you were definitely family. We appreciate everything you have done for us. You were the jack of all trades for frogtown, their wasn’t nothing you couldn’t fix. I remember you and my mom Bernice/Leathy would go at it all the time and be back friends the next day 😂. Strange love/hate relationship you guys had. I didn’t know Tuesday at my grandma house was going to be the last time I saw you, but I’m glad I did.
To the family, praying for strength during this time.
