“Rest In Peace Ronnie Wilkes. As two young teachers starting out in Clay County, both my husband and I were blessed beyond measure to have worked with Mr. Wilkes for many years at Ridgeview High School.

Blessings and condolences to his family and all those whose lives he touched. We love you, Mr. Wilkes. Jeff and Kerry Tucker”

“My name is Harrell Parker. I am so so sorry for Ron's passing. We were close friends while in High School at dear ole Clay Hi. Along with Eddie Knight. We had many good clean fun as kids in High School. I thought the world of Ronnie's parets. Especially his father Floyd. In fact I worked with Floyd at the yarn mill right after I served four years in the Air Force and came back to GCS until I moved to Palatka. Where I retired after 40 years. from Georgia Pacific.”
