Ronald Lupo was our older brother. He was born on July 9, 1963. Ronald was a kind and caring young man. He was only 32 years old when God called him home. It was on our daddy’s birthday. He never married or had children of his own but loved his nieces and nephews. My parents, my sister, and myself were very proud of him. He was born with a condition called neurofibromatosis but never let it stop him from accomplishing his dreams. He will forever live in our hearts. We miss you dearly Ronald.
The National Emergency Training Center (NETC) campus will be closed during the government shutdown, including access to the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial.
We appreciate your understanding and encourage you to check for updates as the situation evolves.
Ronald was my uncle and I miss him dearly. I was about 6 years old when he passed away. People say I look and act just like him . I wish I could have gotten to know him more and go on adventures with him.
