Not sure what to say?

I think of Rhoda every time I hear someone talk about Singapore. We both bonded over our love for travel. I am still traveling the world. Sadly, I´ve lost more friends to pancreatic cancer but now see that they are increasing survival rates! Miss you Rhoda!

Rhoda was a great friend. I met her in my teens. Travelled together to Europe and supported each other as we figured out our life path. I think of her often and miss her a lot.

I loved her laugh and smile. She had the greatest laugh! She is missed! Our last trip together was to Tenerife in the Canary Islands. We had a great time together!

I worked with Rhoda on her property in Princeton NJ. I was her contractor and advisor and if given more time ,I'm sure her Friend. I loved to make her laugh. I liked her straight forward business like manner. We worked well together and she was hands down my favorite customer. I never met her In person and now I can put a face to the voice. She was truley a beautifull person inside and out. I will miss her deeply. RIP Rhoda. Brian

I knew Rhoda through my husband, Dan Olmstead and knew her to be a wonderfully adventurous, friendly and sharing person.

My sympathies go to the family and friends who will sorely miss her.

Rhoda and I worked together a long time ago but we've stayed in contact off and on over the years. I thoroughly enjoyed her travel adventures vicariously and treasure the journals she shared.

My heart goes out to the family and her many friends, we sorely miss her and her infectious happy perspectives.

I'm sure she's hip deep in yet another grand adventure with her new friends.

I bid you farewell, you will be missed forever!

To all of Rhoda's family and wide circle of friends, my heart is saddened by her death. I will miss my dear high school friend. I so remember the wide smile she wore every time I saw her. I sensed these were her final days, but wish there had been more of them. I know she is in heaven and most likely smiling down on us right now. She has traveled to her final destination and now is at peace and out of pain. Rhoda I will miss you!
Your travel buddy and friend, Marsha Podd

Rhoda and I worked closely together as volunteers to help women managers develop executive leadership skills. It was immediately obvious that she was extraordinarily warm, bright, caring, generous, and honest. My deepest sympathies go to her family and friends who I know will miss all of Rhoda's wonderful qualities.

Aunt Rhoda taught us to live life to it's fullest. Because of her I appreciate every dawn. We love you and miss you dearly. I know you will be looking down on us with the angels and smiling.
