We had talked about his family history. His great grandfather came to Arizona in 1854 with my great-great-grandfather.Arizona Daily Star wrote:Michael J. Ronstadt, the youngest brother of singer Linda Ronstadt, died early Tuesday. He was 62 years old.
Ronstadt was a prominent musician in Tucson, performing for years with his sons Michael G. and Petie Ronstadt, in the Ronstadt Generations band. His last performance with the group was in June, when they released “In the Land of the Setting Sun.” The album came out in May and the group performed several CD release concerts.
Rondstadt had been ill for several months before the release but at a show in June at Monterey Court, he appeared to catch a second wind, said son Petie.
“That night when he started it seemed like, ‘OK, he’s hurting’,” Petie Ronstadt said. “By the time we got into that second set, that third set, he was his normal self. He was there in the moment and shared it. It was a pretty spectacular night.”
RIP Michael J. Ronstadt

RIP Michael J. Ronstadt
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Teach a child to be polite and courteous in the home and, when he grows up, he'll never be able to drive in New Jersey.
