Metzger Gardens Event Venue North Manchester, IN

We had the honor to host a Celebration of life for Ron Shockey last night. Such a great family to honor, JP Freeman did a beautiful job of honoring Ronnie and then everyone enjoyed food by Bear Bones BRBQ Food Truck (amazing, btw!) our venue’s Icecream machine and a cash bar by CC Bartending helped raise funds for the family. The Strays played live and sounded great as always! Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate a life well lived and surround the Ron Shockey family with love. North Manchester is a wonderful place full of good people that come together, even in the tough times. I think it’s fitting to say our community loved Ronnie as much as he loved the community.
