JEFFERSON – On Tuesday, Aug. 30, 2022 heaven gained one absolutely stunning angel. Rhonda was born on March 7, 1988 in Nashua, N.H. but has lived in Maine for the majority of her life.

As a young child, she participated in baseball, chorus, played the violin and was known to always be babysitting as she loved kids. She graduated from Maranacook High School in 2006. From there, she was very eager to work in the medical field and started to work as a CNA and then quickly became a CRMA. From there, her interest in mental health sparked. She ended up going to college and graduated with two bachelor’s degrees; one of Rhonda’s proudest accomplishments. Rhonda had another most prized accomplishment, becoming a mother to her daughter, Lahla. Watching Rhonda as a mom was one of the most beautiful things to witness. She loved her daughter so very much and a part of Rhonda will live in Lahla forever.

Rhonda was an intense person to a stranger, but anyone who came to know her, knew that it was because of her deep passion for life. She did everything with 100 percent effort. Being a mom, cooking, baking, canning, painting, crocheting, listening to music, dancing, hosting holidays, making someone laugh, helping someone in need, going to church, and stopping by just to make someone’s day. With that said, Rhonda experienced a lot of tough things that comes with life; but she never let it get her down. Without Rhonda, a lot of people wouldn’t be where they are today. She was inspiring, resilient, kind, compassionate, professional, and overall a one of a kind woman. If love could have saved her, Rhonda would have lived forever. Love you, latah.

She was predeceased by her grandmother, Shirley Anne Shank; her great-grandmother, Barbara Grigas; her cousin, Joey Grigas; her aunt, Joy Schofield; and her Pepe, from her biological father’s side.

She is survived by her beautiful daughter Lahla; her husband, Aaron; her stepchildren Mackenzie and Zachary; her parents Joseph and Debra Legendre; her siblings Hollie, Jess, Joseph and Justin; her biological father, Armand; as well as many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, in-laws and friends.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, Sept. 17 at 11 a.m. at Plummer Funeral Home, 983 Ridge Rd., Windsor, ME 04363. A period of visitation will be held beginning at 10 a.m. until the time of service. There will also be a potluck celebration of life held after the service at a location to be determined.
