Ronnie was born on February 19, 1945, in San Francisco, California, to Buster and Ronda Anderson. At the time of his birth, his father, Buster, was serving as a Merchant Marine. Ronnie later made Snyder, Texas, his home, where he graduated from Snyder High School in 1964. He went on to attend Texas Tech University, earning his degree in Accounting.

Throughout his working years, Ronnie built a career in accounting and business. He worked for Brunken Toyota, Greyhound, the oilfield, and Anderson & Anderson. It was during his time at Greyhound that Ronnie met the love of his life, Bertha Ann Montalvo. The two were married on April 11, 1970, in Crosbyton, Texas, and shared more than 56 years of marriage together. Ronnie later retired from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

Ronnie was also deeply committed to his community and to the education of local children. He served on the Snyder Independent School District Board of Trustees from 2008 until 2021. During his time on the board, he served as Secretary from 2014-2015 and President from 2015-2016. His years of service reflected his dedication to Snyder and his desire to make a positive difference in the community.

Ronnie was a man who enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. He had a passion for hot rod cars, farming, and sports. He especially enjoyed a good cheeseburger, strawberry milkshake, Root Beer, watermelon, popcorn, ginger snaps, and chewing gum. His interests and the things he enjoyed brought him many happy moments throughout his life.

Ronnie was preceded in death by his parents, Buster and Ronda Anderson.

He leaves behind his beloved wife, Bertha Anderson of Longview, Texas; his son, Roger Anderson and wife Susan of Arlington, Texas; his daughter, Michele Menges and husband Eric of Longview, Texas; and his brother, Larry Anderson and wife Bobbie of Choudrant, Louisiana. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
