How many children did Ronnie van zant have?

I co-wrote a teen interest column in The St. Charles Herald, my small town local paper. I saw them perform in the "Sugarbowl" in Jacksonville, Fl. They were singing covers but were amazing even then. I had to get an interview with them. Besides, I didn't believe my friend when they told me Ronnie was married with a child. They agreed to the interview and Ronnie, Gary and Alan came over to my sister's house. At that time they were called the 1%. One of my biggest regrets is that I didn't have a camera and they did not have any publicity pictures. The article had to run without a picture. One of the questions Ronnie answered was that he was married with a two year old child. It broke my sixteen year old heart. He was approximately 19 years old at that time and had such a dynamic presence that even after all these years later I have never forgotten sitting in that Cedar Hills backyard talking for hours. His tragic death took someone very special away much too early.
