R.I.P my little sister
?My sincere condolences to Joel, Nicole, and the other family members. Rhonda and I were friends since high school. She was truly the sweetest, most caring person – who helped me through my homesick times at college. I have such fond memories of spending weekends at each others homes. Rhonda will be greatly missed by all who knew her. She touched so many lives. I will miss you so much my sweet friend.?
Love for family, esp. her children is always the first thing you think of when thinking about my Aunt Rhonda! She was a very sweet and caring person. Her life is gone way to soon so please pray for strength for Joel and Nichole. She is now in the arms of Jesus celebrating her reunion with all that have gone before! RIP Aunt Rhonda!!!!!
