Rhonda S. Redeker, 61, of Nokomis passed away Tuesday, June 21, 2022 at Memorial Medical Center in Springfield. Rhonda was born December 18, 1960 in Hillsboro, Illinois to the late Orlena A. (Johnson) and Lester H. Halleman. She graduated from Nokomis High School with class of 1979.

Rhonda was a farm wife, helping with planting and harvest until she was diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia in 2008. She was a warrior, never one to complain or ask why me? Her response was always why not me? She had an infectious laugh that would always bring a smile to your face. Her strong faith brought her through many hard times during her illness. In addition to her husband, Rhonda is survived by her daughter: Feryl (Ryan) York of Cedar Rapids, Iowa; her very special granddog, Cooper; siblings: Sandra (Joe) McNeal of Litchfield, Pat (Steve Gerlach) of Waggoner and Larry (Shelley) Halleman of Nokomis.
