Oh Rhonda, I miss you! What a wonderful friendship we have shared. We started working together when you first came to Prairie Grove. Our friendship grew and we remained close even though I moved to Texas. It was always so much fun when you came here or when I came back to Prairie Grove. Our friendship spanned the miles and was strong. I love you my friend and love your family. You were such a great Mom! I just can’t say goodbye.

I worked with Rhonda at Battlefield Park for a few years prior to her retirement. She was a blessing to me coming in for a new job and especially moving to a new town. I will miss her beautiful smile and infectious laugh! Never has there been a more sincerely honest, trustworthy and compassionate person in my life. I will miss you Rhonda, thanks for the memories!

Erik, Christie and Tiffany...

So sorry for the loss of Ms. Rhonda. She was a sweet lady and will be missed. I remember growing up attending Prairie Oaks Baptist Church together and attending school together with all of you, seeing Ms. Rhonda often. I remember at church her willingness to help with the nursery, teach, or help in the kitchen with food, she always had a smile on her face. May each of you find peace and comfort during this time and know that you will be reunited with her one day. Thoughts and prayers during this difficult time for you all.

Christie, I am so sorry about the loss of your mom. I had gone to see her on Sunday and she talked and went on just like she used to. We talked about old times and when you used to come out to the house and you and Shawna ran around. It's hard to believe she has gone on to her heavenly home. Rhonda was a very special Lady. Keep those precious memories close at heart and remember them often. Prayers for you and all of your family.
