It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Ronda Louise Stringer, who's journey came to rest at her home in Lake Butler, Florida, on October 25, 2025. Born on September 7, 1967, in Logan, Ohio, Ronda lived a life full of love for her family and anyone blessed to have known her.
For eleven years, Ronda shared her life and love with her husband, Joseph Stringer, Jr. Together, they merged their families, including six children: Angel Louise Coakley, Terra Lee Cole, Jerry Lee Coakley (Kristine Rodriguez), Jason Junior Bratcher, Adam Stringer (Deitra), and Lonnie Stringer (Pam). Each child held a special place in her heart, and she embraced the chaos and joys of motherhood with grace and open arms.
Ronda's love only grew as she became a proud grandmother to her precious grandchildren: Michael Junior Coakley, Issac Edward Warren, Zackery Norman, Mackenzie Cole, Dalton Cole, Ellowyn Louise Coakley, Adelise Louise Coakley, Brody Morrison, Samatha Bratcher, Colton Coakley, Mason Tomlinson, Kinsley Stringer, and Mason Stringer. To them, she wasn’t just Grandma; she was a source of boundless love and inspiration. She is also survived by her siblings, Mary Sue and George Edward Coakley, Jr.
Beyond her pride in her family, Ronda had a spirit that simply couldn’t be tamed. Be it crafting up a storm or shopping to her heart’s content, girl loved to keep herself busy! Whether she was soaking up the sun on sandy beaches or camping under the starlit sky, anytime Ronda could be on the go brought her pure joy, and her adventurous spirit encouraged others to join in on the fun.
Ronda is reunited with her parents, George Edward Coakley, Sr. and Mary Louise Callahan Coakley, and her sister, Georganne Louise Coakley.
As we gather our hearts and minds to remember Ronda, let us carry forward her rebellious spirit, her artistic flair, and her fierce love for family.
