Rhonda is survived by 4 sisters, Janice ‘Jan” Uppinghouse (Jimmy Spencer) of Macomb, Lisa Haught (Mike) of Hannibal, Carla Uppinghouse of Peoria , and Katrina Albert (Ted) of Golden; 6 children, Brandy McCormick of Macomb, Brian McCormick (Erica) of Bushnell, Dustin McCormick of Macomb, Cierra Michl of Macomb, Felicia Michl of Macomb, Christopher Michl (Skylar) of Morton; 10 grandchildren, Ava, Jacelyn, Payton, Raygan, Konnor, Alayna, Haylea, Emma, Stella, Madalynn and another grandchild and great-grandchild on the way.
She grew up in the country, where her wild imagination first took root, before eventually moving to Macomb in her twenties. She spent 15 years working at Cooper’s Porcelain Products, followed by another 15 years in housekeeping at Countryview Care Center. Rhonda was a passionate collector who found joy in gathering Barbies, Indian dolls, Funko Pops, and dream catchers. Her favorite animal was the wolf, which she often said symbolized intuition and guidance.
When she wasn’t working, Rhonda treasured spending time with her children and grandchildren. She had a generous, nurturing heart and loved to laugh and joke with them, creating memories they will carry forever.
