“Ronnie was a security guard in LA and in SF on weekends, and a responsible, serious young man whose grandmother, Flora Bell Sanders, had arrived in Jonestown in August of the previous year. In Jonestown, Ronnie was assigned to childcare of toddler/preschool children, but put in for reassignment and may have gotten it; he also worked as a server and on public utilities. ” - Kathryn Barbour
