Rhonda was born on May 10, 1957 to Homer and Helen (Kramer) Osborn in Sterling, IL. She was raised in Coleta, and graduated from Sterling High School in 1975. She married Kevin Geiger on October 25, 1980 in Rock Island.
Rhonda and Kevin moved to Cambridge, WI, to dairy for the next 21 years, and this is also where their children were born and went school. In 2002, they moved the dairy back to the family farm in Illinois.
Rhonda was a great farm hand, a fabulous cook, and she loved to dance. She also enjoyed gardening, vacationing, and playing cards with her friends. Her most cherished moments were spending time with her children and grandchildren.
Rhonda is survived by her husband, Kevin; daughter, Emily Varela, Port Byron; son, Carl (Becky) Geiger, Port Byron; grandchildren, Ethan, Morgan, Leo, and Nicolas; sisters, Donna (Ernie) Albus, Oregon, IL, Deb (Bob) Daughetee of Townsend, GA; brother, Chuck (Deb) Osborn of Sterling, IL, along with many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents, many aunts and uncles, and a brother-in-law Mack Johnson.
