Ronda Lynn (Earles) Blankenship

Ronda Lynn (Earles) Blankenship, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away peacefully on November 24, 2025, surrounded by her cherished family. Born on November 17, 1974, in Columbus, Ohio, Ronda was the daughter of Ronald and Janet (Newell) Earles and a source of light and love to all who knew her.

A graduate of London High School in 1992, Ronda dedicated many years of her life to the Presbyterian Child Care Center, where she nurtured countless children with warmth and compassion. For the last several years, she served with pride as the Customer Service Director and Office Manager for Elite FTS, where her dedication and professionalism shone brightly. Ronda found joy in simple pleasures, whether it was diving into a good book or enjoying a tranquil swim. However, it was her family that meant everything to her. As the ultimate coach’s wife, she stood proudly by Michael, cheering on their children in various sports and embracing every moment spent with her grandson, Artemis Reginald Harrell, whose joy lit up her world.

Ronda is survived by her devoted husband of 30 years, Michael Blankenship; her loving mother, Janet Earles; her adoring children, Page Renee Harrell and Michael William Blankenship; her grandson Artemis; her siblings Ronald Earles and Kandy Gollihue; sister-in-law Angie (Brice) Graham; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, other family members, friends, and treasured coworkers.
