Northwestern State president Dr. Marcus D. Jones confirmed Caldwell’s passing today in a statement.
It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of one of our current students, Ronnie Caldwell Jr. Ronnie was a talented junior business administration major from Austin, Texas. Ronnie’s dedication to the community was truly inspiring, as evidenced by him spending the summer coaching a local youth baseball team, teaching those children the values of competition and sportsmanship.
During these difficult times, I extend my deepest condolences and offer my prayers to Ronnie’s family and friends. While we mourn the loss of Ronnie, let us also honor and celebrate his life. Ronnie will forever be cherished as a beloved member of the NSU family.
