Rhonda Michelle Cain, née Tharp, passed away on October 18, 2026, in Sulpher, Kentucky, at the age of 56. She was born on August 11, 1970, in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Rhonda will be remembered as a warm and vibrant woman who never met a stranger. She brought a bright spirit to those around her and had a special love for high heels, lipstick, and anything sparkly. She loved nature, and she loved life. Those qualities shaped the way she moved through the world and the way she will be remembered by all who knew her.
She worked as a receptionist at Family Health Center on East Broadway, where her welcoming nature was well suited to the work she did. Her kindness and easy way with people reflected the generous spirit she carried throughout her life.
Rhonda is survived by her son, Damien Breeden (Mars); her sisters, Shannon Gibson, Christy Jessie, and Lisa Tharp; her nieces, Jamie Gibson (Anthony), Alyssa Tharp (Dustin), Anna Arney, Samantha Reeves (Savanna), and Bethany Reeves; her nephews, Christopher Gibson (Elizabeth) and Alec Jessie; and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. She also leaves behind her companion, Allen Supplee, whose presence was an important part of her life. Rhonda’s beloved cats, Porsha, Bailey, and Lucky, were also cherished members of her daily life and brought her great comfort and companionship.
She was preceded in death by her father, Richard Tharp; her mother, Patricia Tharp; her grandparents, James Webster, Wilma Webster, Bill Tharp, and Rosemary Tharp.
