Rhonda Henson Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Feb. 20, 2025.
Rhonda Dale "Nana" Henson (née Beagle), 58, passed away on February 19, 2025, in Ghent, Kentucky. Born on March 26, 1966, in Cincinnati, Ohio, Rhonda lived a life full of love, laughter, and unwavering devotion to her family and community.

Rhonda is survived by her loving husband of 40 years, Dave; her children, Brittany Tower and David Henson; her father, Ronald Beagle; her siblings, Mary Ann Reenan, Becky Brewer, and Rodney Beagle; ten beautiful grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews. She cherished every moment spent with her grandchildren and was their biggest supporter in all aspects of life.

A passionate fan of UK basketball and football, Rhonda loved cheering on her favorite teams as well as supporting local sports. However, her greatest joy came from being surrounded by family and friends. She had an infectious energy that could light up any room she entered. Her warm smile and welcoming embrace made everyone feel at home. Whether dancing, singing, or simply being the life of the party, Rhonda had a way of making people feel loved.

She never met a stranger-everyone she encountered was treated like an old friend. Her generosity knew no bounds; she was always the first to volunteer, lend a helping hand, or take the lead in organizing community events. Her love for others was evident in everything she did.

Rhonda was fortunate to have found her true love in Dave. Together for 43 years, they built a life filled with love, laughter, and countless cherished memories. Their greatest blessings were their children and grandchildren, whom Rhonda adored beyond measure. She never missed an opportunity to share how proud she was of them.

Her presence was larger than life, leaving an irreplaceable void in the hearts of those who knew her. Yet, she would want that space to be filled with the memories she gifted us-the love she spread so freely and the joy she brought into every moment.

A Celebration of Life will be held on February 22, 2025, at Lighthouse Church, located at 5405 US-127 in Owenton, Kentucky. Visitation services will begin at 11:00 AM and conclude at 1:00 PM, with additional eulogy services immediately following.

Rhonda's legacy is one of love, kindness, and an unbreakable bond with those she held dear. May her memory continue to bring warmth and comfort to all who were blessed to know her.

To My Friend Rhonda - Only you could make Heaven even brighter! I hope you are proudly wearing that gorgeous smile!

We started as co-workers, then became friends, and thank you for that. Even though it has been years since we worked together-and a few since we last talked/got together, to this day, my heart lights up every time I hear your name. An immediate smile comes to my face every time I recall our past conversations and hilarious lunch ventures! Thank you so much for sharing your sunshine with me. Thank you so much for the support each and every time I needed it! Thank you for so many great memories! I love you and you will always be that friend that really made an impact on me!

Dave - my apologies, I am just learning of her passing via Stuart Hyde - otherwise definitely would have reached out/attended her service. My heart is breaking for you, Brittney and David. May God Bless you.

I never met Rhonda, classmate of Dave. I know their love was like one we all chase and wish for. We shared a love of UK sports and her and Dave were kind enough to always reach out to us when they couldn't attend an event and wanted to share their tickets. Always thinking of others. Our deepest condolences to the family in their loss. Terri and Brian Samblanet
