A career .277 hitter with 342 home runs and over 1300 RBI.
A five-time Gold Glover and a nine-time All-Star.
A role model and an inspiration to generations of Cubs fans.
A hero to thousands of children afflicted with juvenile diabetes.
Above all, a legend and a class act.
Rest in peace, Ronnie.

There's a special relationship between a baseball announcer and his respective baseball team listeners. More so when the announcer is a former player. He will assuredly be missed...
You listed everything he is but omitted one key detail:
A Hall of Famer. Or at least he should've been.
Sorry to all Cubs fans that mourn the loss of their hometown favorite. It's a shame that he had to pass away at such a young age and hopefully someone in Cooperstown will figure out that a terrible wrong has been done.
