Rhonda Brown Tuggle, better known as beloved Nana, Mom, Daughter, Sister, Aunt and Friend, passed away in her home Tuesday, Jan. 12, 2010. She was born Feb. 1, 1956, and was a lifelong resident of Vicksburg.
She dedicated her whole self to her children and grandchildren. She loved the outdoors and all of Christ’s creations, from the birds in the sky to the rocks on the ground. No gravel driveway or rock pile stood a chance.
Rhonda was an employee of the Grand Gulf Nuclear Power Plant before working from 1981 to 1993 at International Paper alongside many others she considered friends. She also spent time working alongside her family at The Tamale Place.
She was preceded in death by her father, Richard F. “Bill” Brown. She is survived by her mother, Margerey Sollys Brown of Vicksburg; daughters, Rachel Sullivan and husband Bobby of Vicksburg and Cerissa Neal and husband Sid of Madison; grandchildren, Shaye and Joshua Sullivan and Garrett, Landon and Sawyer Neal; siblings, Judy Formby and husband Alan of Shreveport, La., Brenda Sims and husband Andy of Gallman and Allen Brown and wife Sheila of Vicksburg; and nieces and nephews, Brian, Erin and David Formby, Daniel, Joe, Paul and Andrea Sims, Matthew and Michael Brown and Jeremy Renfroe.
Rhonda never failed to say, “I love you” every chance she had and she will be greatly missed.
In lieu of flowers, tributes to Rhonda’s life may be made to St. Alban’s Episcopal Church in Bovina.
