“Ritchie Fons was the best Sunday School Teacher I ever had. He was always enthusiastic about the subject matter but more importantly, he cared for and liked doing it and we always had a good time while learning something. He was a good man and my condolences to the family for their loss. Sincerely, Terry Trodden”
