The tremendous outpouring of love and support from so many of you for so many years and the incredible number of people gathered here today is a testament to the fact that Rhonda and Tom as well as their 4 children, Ben, Crystal, Molly, and Abby are all shining examples of what God wants us all to be.   I’m Carla, her younger sister, and I would like to share with you all some of the beautiful and often humorous moments and memories our family shared with Rhonda throughout her life.  Moments we will cherish forever.
