Ron, you were such a good hearted man and so full of knowledge. You are missed each and every day here. I personally miss coming to see you every day at work and getting your enthusiastic input of all the films & music of your era that I would just now be experiencing - the many stories about Steve McQueen, all the old school NFL football players, fancy cars & lessons in life. If I had just seen The Dirty Dozen, you'd tell me just about everything about it from A to Z. You absolutely loved that line Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn. from Gone With the Wind haha... And the coat you said everyone wanted to wear after McQueen wore it in Bullet. No one else could tell it like you used to. Goodbye, old friend.

Ronnie , You were 1st Class & Gentlemen ! USPS mourns a "DEDICATED" EMPLOYEE ..... Sincerely & Respectfully , JOE MYERS

Rick. So sorry to hear about Ronnie's passing. My deepest sympathy

The "GOOD" die "YOUNG" ! Ronnie inspired me @ WORK ...

Mary Ann and Ricky, I was very saddened to hear of Ronnie's passing and my sympathy is with you in this time of sorrow. I have not been in touch for many years, but I do remember going to Nether Providence football games to watch Ronnie with my father, we would sit with your Dad. I want to pass on a message I received from an old co-worker friend of mine. Ted Lawson grew up in Chester and played basketball at CHS. Ted and his sister remembered that Ronnie played Biddy league basketball with some of the best players to play at CHS. Ronnie is fondly remembered by many people.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Dear Ricky and Mary Ann and family, I am so very sorry for the sudden loss of your dear brother and my cousin. Ronnie and I were only 3 months apart and were in home room together in 10th grade at CHS. I was very proud to say that he was my cousin. He was so sweet and handsome! I can't imagine the grief you are feeling now losing your dear brother so suddenly. I have fond memories of coming to your house to play and all the family meals at Grandpop and Grandmom's house. Ronnie's loss makes us realize how precious life is and has motivated me to reach out to cousins and family members I have lost touch with over the years. I know that Ronnie will be dearly missed by his loving family and friends. My family and I send our deep sympathy and love to you both and will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.

Sincere condolences to the Pompilii family.

Mary Ann very sorry to hear about Rons passing.

RIP Ron, I was friends with you and your sister Mary Ann back in the 9th & Fulton St. neighborhood in the early 60s.

I owe my fan hood for the Philadelphia Eagles to you. You really introduced me to them and Ive been a fan ever since.

I IMAGINE THE ANGELS ARE GETTING SOME STORIES!!! LAURIE FERRO / LOUGHEAD CASHIER

My deepest sympathy to the Pompilii Family for the loss of your loved one, Ronald, "Ron", and pray God gives you comfort, peace and strength.

Dear Rick and family,
I know you probably don't remember, but we were once dorm mates and friends as freshmen at Penn State (6th floor Stuart Hall). I am very sorry to hear of the passing of your dear brother and wish you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. Ron is in God's Holy Keeping now, and will be with you always. Very best and warmest regards from ex-Nittany Lion (class of '71). Take care always...

Pomp rest in peace Big Guy! We had a good run at NP in 1967-68! I'm sure there are plenty of Austin Heally's in heaven for you to work on!

Dear Ricky and Mary Ann,

We are all so sorry and sad to hear of our cousin Ronny's death. Our hearts go out to you and the family at this very sad time. We have good memories of time spent with our cousins at our grandparent's home and will cherish them forever! Sending our love and a big hug!

Dear Mary Ann & Ricky - so very sorry to hear of Ronny's death. Even though it has been years since I last saw him, I am very shocked and saddened. You both have been in my thoughts daily since we heard the news. I will wait to hear about the graveside services.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
