It's so nice to bring up memories of Rhonda. She was our wedding photographer, and with her unique energy and style of engagement with everyone, she brought so much joy to us and our guests on our wedding day. We soon realized we had also gained a friend - she kept in touch with us, she invited us to her home and introduced us to Connie, she gave us remodeling advice, and she gifted us canvas prints from our wedding after she was done displaying them as samples for her business. Takes me down memory lane and feels like yesterday. Sending our love

Dear Rhonda,
Another year has gone by since you've left us. I hope you know how much you are missed. I think of you often and always reminded by things that you said or places we've gone. I will be thinking about you tomorrow and keeping your memories in my heart.
I miss you so much !
Love,

Dear Rhonda,
Happy Birthday my dear friend. I think about you always and I am reminded by one of your happiest birthdays when Connie surprised you with Pockets and Bailey. The smile in your picture holding them says it all. I hope that you are having a happy day in heaven. I think of you always.
Love,
Theresa

Connie,
My husband and I have been meaning to look Rhonda up again for a while, and we're heartbroken to find this news of her passing. She was our wedding photographer 12 years ago, and we adored her! We were just looking at our album tonight (finally unpacked from a recent move), and we were thinking about how much fun it would be to introduce our kids to her, and we were so hoping to have her do portraits of us all.. We are so sorry for your loss. We visited her at your house just twice, and she made us feel like family- she was just that kind of person. She shared lots of stories about the various adventures you two shared- one could tell from the gleam in her eyes and the song in her voice that she truly loved and enjoyed her life.
Please accept our condolences,
Bridget, David, Ethan, Owen and Penelope Cheng

I was attempting to re-connect with a fellow photographer, when i found this page, and I'm so saddened by this news, I worked at Kimbo Color lab in SF from 2000-2005, and I always was so happy to see Rhonda's happy face pass through our doors, she was a joy to know, I'm so sad that I waited to long to 'look her up':( she had a great passion for life and truly was a wonderful & beautiful woman. She once brought me her mama's good cooking for everyone to try, delicous!! loved talking with her, she was certainly a people person. My heart goes out to her family and partner, I know she loved you all very, very much!!

Dear Rhonda,
I cannot believe it's been six months since you left us. I think about you every day and miss talking to you. It was great having you enter one of my dreams, what a pleasant surprise! You looked amazing! Of course you jumped right in and started giving me advice and our typical our sibling-like banter started! It's comforting to know that you haven't changed a bit. Even though we are worlds apart you still are making your presence known..thank you.
Please come and visit me soon, I miss you.
Love,
Theresa

Dear Rhonda, I am so broken hearted that you are gone-surely we had more time. I miss your emails and phone calls so much. What I would give for one more phone call. You were going to come visit in the Spring. Finally, Connie and you could have your own room! You were the older sister I never had - urging me to dream and DO. Having you gone has left an awful, large hole in my life. I'm still shocked that you have gone away. How we laughed!! and laughed and laughed. You are an incredible woman, and if I can live life half as large as you, I will be accomplishing a lot. Thanks for being such a wonderful, wonderful friend. I love you so much. I can't stop thinking about you.

Dear Rhonda,
I can't believe it's already been a month since you have left us. I think about you always. Every time I think of you, my best friend, I am reminded by the laughter and happiness you brought to everyone. Marathon conversations that lasted from 8 pm until 8 am..only with you! Laughing until we were on the ground, stomachs hurting. Travels, adventures and all that Hollywood gossip will be just a few of my fondest memories spent with you.
It brings me some comfort knowing that you are happy and are helping someone in heaven. I know that you had to leave and
had to move on to greater things than we have here .
I refuse to say goodbye because I know it's not. Please come and visit me in my dreams so we can laugh again and you can update me on all of your adventures in paradise. I can't wait to hear about them! Heaven is lucky to have you but, they already know that
Until later..

Dear Rhonda,
Our times together were too few, but you have left an imprint upon my heart, as you have for many others. Connie was so blessed to have had you by her side for 35 years of growing love. I know that the life you shared together brought her much joy and an immeasurable amount of cherished memories. You were so full of life... the world was a better place, because of your energy and pure goodness. Now Heaven will be an even better place as you join its fleet of Angels. Be at peace, sweet lady, and watch over all of us, especially your Mama and Connie.

Dear Rhonda, You were such a special person to so many people. Thanks for being so good to Trent and for the many memories. I will always appreciate how much you loved my sister. I will miss you. Show them that smile up in heaven! Karen

Rhonda, you were so lively and full of energy last Christmas.You had so many plans and many things to accomplish. How this cancer takes over and deprived you of doing these things. I don't know what this year Christmas will be like without you. You are such a fighter and encourager. You are greatly missed and Christmas dinner will not be the same without you! Rest in Peace!!!

Moiselle, and Connie, Rhonda will be dearly missed, however we will have all the great memories forever. I guess, she'll have to wait a little before we could go for our mc/scooter cruise. You have our condolence, and deepest sympathy.

I can only express my sincere love and support for the very long time friendship that we have shared with each other and with our partners, Connie. I know that what you and Rhonda shared with each other was very special. Please know that, like the sudden loss of my son two years ago, Rhonda will never be totally out of your life. She will always be in your heart and you will, when you need to, be able to talk to her as I do with Greg. I love you, my old friend and working partner.. Errol

Dear, dear Connie.....you know how much my heart aches for you. Rhonda was just such a "cool" woman! Really.....I so liked her from the first time we met (like 20++ years ago). What a gift she was and will always be. I loved the picture of you two together - so good to see your faces!
I love you woman, as only an old, old friend can. Please know that I think about you every day. We will keep in touch!!
