Rhonda Kay Schulte, 66, of Apopka, Florida passed away on Wednesday, October 21, 2020. Mrs. Schulte was born on January 17, 1954 in St. Josephs, Missouri. She will be dearly missed and forever loved by her family and friends. Ronnie loved to love on people. She is survived by her loving husband Arthur Joe Schulte of 31 years; her brother Stanley Woods of Tipton, MO; half-sister, Darlene Kleithermes of Jefferson City, MO; half-brother Jim Tomblinson of Jefferson City, MO; son J.T. fisher of Ventura, CA; son Eric Maher of Lake Ozark, MO; grandchildren Ruby, Addi and Mack. She is preceded in death by her father JR. Woods; her mother Rose Porter and her brother Ralph Woods. Rhonda was a giver, a gatherer of those around her. She drew the broken to her and embraced every opportunity to witness and feed into people’s lives. Those that had the blessing of knowing her, they were fed from her love, from her witness and around her table, as a huge part of her way to show love was through her food and the joy she got from all of us enjoying her delicious creations. Ronnie’s passion behind her work, her cooking, her daily time spent in GOD’s word were reflected in her heart and her hardworking hands, hands which labored unceasingly. Galatians 6:9 “Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up”. Ronnie lived that every day. Her love for her JoJo, the love of her life had no limits and their love story is epic and will be shared by generations to come. Ronnie was an amazing Mother, not simply defined by her acts of motherhood but more so by the love she freely poured into both of her boys, a love that even now helps their love to grow deeper. MeMaw loved and played with her grandchildren on a very special level that would move the hearts of anyone blessed to experience it first-hand. Her life was an example of compassion- Ephesians 4:32 “Be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving one another as GOD in Christ forgave you.”

As former neighbor’s we have lost touch over the years, but have never forgotten the good times with Rhonda, Joe and all of the neighbor’s and friends who gathered around their table.
