Ronald's father passed away when he was very young, leaving his mother who struggles with alcoholism and the effects of AIDs to care for him. Her ailments grew more intense, leaving her unable to provide for Ronald. His grandmother took him in for a bit but eventually surrendered him to neighbors that tried their best for him. Ronald was taken into Chariots care around the age of six. He was a very social little boy, always dancing and wanting to be a pilot when he grew up! Now as a young adult, Ronald is pushing himself in school, helping to lead Sunday School teachings at the local church, and is looking to finish high school!
