Rhonda (Thompson) O’Neal, 59, of Wilkinson, passed away peacefully at her home on Thursday, July 24, 2025. She was born April 11, 1966, in Greenfield, the daughter of Hubert and Gloria Ann (Clark) Thompson.
A 1984 graduate of Eastern Hancock High School, Rhonda dedicated 28 years to Verizon Wireless, formerly known as GTE, where she worked in the corporate accounts division. Most recently, she was employed at Speedway in Knightstown. She cherished time spent vacationing in Florida, walking on the beach, and in her younger years, enjoyed roller skating. Above all, she loved being with her family—especially her beloved grandson, whom she enjoyed watching play baseball and football. Rhonda was known for her warm heart, sharp wit, and sense of humor, which brightened the lives of those around her.
Rhonda is survived by her daughter, Candis O’Neal (companion, Adrian Ramones) of Geist; her grandson, Xavier Ramones; her brother, Glenn Thompson of New Castle; her ex-husband, Solomon O’Neal; and her aunt and uncle, Bernita (Clark) Swank and Loyd Swank. She will also be lovingly remembered by her soul sisters, Cindy Wells Griffin, Susie Hickle Whitacre, Stacey Randolph Stine, Sheila Helm Batten, and Pam Young Loyd, as well as many cousins including Steve Thompson; Barry and Kristi (Thompson) McKenzie; Phil and Debbie Thompson; Susan and Tammy Thompson, Don and Susan Thompson, Charlie and Janet (Thompson) Odem and Victor and Becky Thompson.
