In Memory of Ronnie Smith - We at Eastern FC are deeply saddened to hear of

Mr. Ronnie Smith's passing , August 17, 2026, in Liverpool, England.⁠
⁠
Since 1996, Ronnie was a special part of our Eastern residential camps each summer. Players, parents, and coaches were fortunate to share in his knowledge, expertise, passion, and sense of humor. He was truly a wonderful man who made a lasting impact on everyone fortunate enough to know him.⁠ Ronnie will be deeply missed by the many players, parents, and coaches whose lives he touched throughout the years. We feel truly blessed to have known him.⁠
⁠
Our thoughts and prayers are with Ronnie’s family and loved ones during this difficult time.⁠
⁠
Rest in peace, Ronnie.⁠
Eastern FC, USA.
