Rhonda Lee Fellner (nee DeBruyne), born January 3, 1980. Mom and Dad's miracle baby, with a big sister Shelley waiting for her arrival home. The day Mom and Rhonda were supposed to come home from the hospital I was at school. I was so excited to get home for lunch that I ran all the way. When I got to the door Dad was standing there and he said to me "Sorry Shelley but they could not come home today". I was so upset. I walked into the living room and there she was, lying on the couch was my beautiful baby sister Rhonda with her big blue sparkling eyes looking at me. My heart filled with love instantly. Then two years and 11 months to the day later it all changed, along came beautiful baby girl number 3, Jamie. Rhonda also found out how amazing it was to be a big sister. Our family was complete and full of love. Growing up as a family we spent a lot of time boating, fishing, camping, taking family road trips to the states, B.C. and numerous other places. Each trip was always entertaining, fun and full of wonderful memories that we will cherish forever. Rhonda started kindergarten at Oungre school and about half way through that year we moved to Midale where she continued on until she graduated. During Rhonda's school years she was always active. She played badminton, volleyball, baseball, swimming, gymnastics, skating, curling and playing with all her friends. Oh and don't let me forget she loved to ride her bike. After graduation she took one year of office education at Â鶹ÊÓƵeast Regional College. She started working at NSWB for a short while and then went to work at the Co-op grocery store. Five years ago she became an employee of the Sun Counrty Health Region as a staff scheduler. She loved her job and it showed because she was excellent at it. Anyone who worked with her loved working with her and anyone who got a phone call at 6:00 in the morning to come to work did not mind answering the phone because of the sweet sound of her voice. Her life changed when she met the man of her dreams, Cole. They were always busy playing slowpitch in the summer, playing volleyball and watching hockey in the winter and visiting family and friends. On September 18, 2004 they were married. Cole was the love of her life. Rhonda was accepted into the Fellner family with open loving arms as Cole was to ours. They created their own loving family with three beautiful daughters, Kellie, Tia and Rayne, the other loves of her life. Her family was her life. She loved all of them with her whole heart. Rhonda will shine on through her three beautiful loving girls. Kellie was her shopper, no worries about anything. Tia was her shy girl at first and her worry wart, but Tia did love to talk her mom's ear off. Rayne was mama's girl, she loved to sit in the rocking chair with her mom and have her afternoon naps. Her husband Cole, they were each others best friends, each others rock of support and each others secret keeper. She was his everything. Rhonda loved to watch her kids playing sports like soccer and gymnastics and loved playing games with her daughters and family. She was an adventurous soul, always happy. She loved going on family vacations and camping and loved outdoor fires with her family and friends and going on bike rides with her family. She enjoyed going for walks, listening to music and dancing with her husband and daughters and loved swimming and ice cream, especially from Milky Way. Rhonda appreciated alone time with her husband, especially any little trips they got to take together. Rhonda had nieces and nephews from both sides of the family and she loved them all as if they were her own, and they loved her right back. I know that they will deeply miss all those big hugs and kisses. She was an amazing mother, daughter, wife, sister, aunty and granddaughter, niece, cousin, godmother and friend. We are so blessed to have had her in our lives and to have felt her love. Everyone and anyone that knew Rhonda knows what type of person she was. She wore her heart on her sleeve. She would do anything for anyone anytime. She was so loving and caring and never judged anyone. She was always so laid back, bubbly and happy. THEEE most amazing person you could ever meet. Her bright blue eyes and amazing smile would light up any sized room. Her laugh so contagious you couldn't help but join in. She showed her courageous, strong fighting side last September when she started her battle with cancer. She put up her dukes from the get go. She was always ready to face the next step without a single complaint. She never stopped fighting. Cole never left her side. He was there day and night helping her with all she needed. He showed his devotion and true love. There was so much love and support from family and friends through all of this no more pain She made it clear to the end that we all stick together, be there for one another and stay strong. She said all of this through actions and not words and we have done this for her. Through reminiscing, hugs, kisses and saying those three little words " I Love You". We know she is the brightest star in the sky, the most beautiful flower in God's garden and the most angelic angel watching over us. She is the warmth of the sun, the freshness of the rain and that gentle breeze brushing your face. We love you so much Rhonda, we miss you and you will never ever be forgotten. You are forever in our hearts. Rest in peace our dear Rhonda.
