My name is Lizzie Kunde and I am the newest member of the AncientFaces Support team! See more info about me here: Lizzie - Community Support and I look forward to getting to know our wonderful members. Feel free to reach out with any questions, happy to help :)
My mom's side of the family is Swedish (and still lives in Sweden) and she instilled in me lots of Swedish heritage and traditions which has made me who I am today. My dad's side of the family is German and Irish and the most likely the side of the family I get all my freckles from. Family is so important, and welcome everyone to discover more about them, their history, and share about their loved ones who make up the history of who we are!

Hi Don. I wanted you to know that I love and miss you. You was like the Father I never had until I broke your lovely daughters heart. I wish to this day I never did. I think about her almost every day. I never stopped loving her. I'm so sorry you had to leave everyone so soon. Thanks for all you ever did for me and allowing me to share part of my life with you all. I will never forget you. God Bless you Don. Love, Ron Leggero

Mom passed away in May 2021 and my life with her was destroyed by you. You were the worst stepfather anyone could have. I can never forgive you for all the pain you have caused in our lives. I hope your rotting in hell as you should be. I put a picture of my first son Ron in your left shirt pocket before we placed you into the ground. I tried to save your life but you didn't listen to any of us. You passed away at the age of 53. I was 25 years old then. I just turned 54. I made it longer than you now. You was right about one thing. I would grow old and lonely. I blame that on you for destroying my life before you destroyed yours forever. They gave me the choice to pull the plug on you but I said no. It was up to your real children. So Jane and John let you go. Life got better without you but now that Mom has passed, I'm now in my own hell without her. She was my everything to me. I pray your in hell because you don't deserve to ever see her again. What you did to me/us has scared me for life. I ended up with 3 boys & 5 grandbaby's. There all wonderful and I never treated them like you did to us all. I'm glad they will never know you. I know you killed all the kittens and you killed my puppy. You were a horrible person. I been filled with hate and distrust all my life because of you. I ended up doing 5 years in jail because of you. You was right about one other thing. Quote: ( After I die you'll probably spit on my grave. ) I made sure I did that. It's been 29 years now and I don't miss you not one day of them years. Almost every day I think about all the bad things you did to us all. Even nightmares. I miss everyone that has passed but you. Everyone on your side of the family is now gone. I cried for all of them but never for you. I'm glad I never ended up being like you. I tried to forgive you. It's never going to happen. My final words to you. I will live the rest of my life knowing I was a better man than you. Ronald C. Dean / Leggero was just a name you gave me. Dean is my real name. My real Father passed in Oct. 2020 I never knew him. He wrote a dying note to me. Quote: ( I love you Ron. Please forgive me ) I forgave him.
