On the morning of October 20th, 2022 at 12:57am, Ronda Renea Thompson of Sandy, Oregon, passed away peacefully at the age of 61. She fought a long, hard battle with endometrial cancer.
Ronda was born in Troy, Ohio to the late Billy Printz and Vickey (Reck) Printz on July 21, 1961. She eventually moved to Seminole, Florida with her family where she attended Seminole High School. It was there where she met her former husband, Michael Thompson. The two were married in a tiny little church in Seminole. Soon after they started a family and moved to Portland, Oregon where she graduated from Parkrose High School in 1979. They had two children together, Michael John Thompson, Jr. (44) and Rhiannon Renea (Thompson) Ambrosius (39).
Ronda worked in hospitality management most of her life and loved the social aspect of her job where she grew strong friendships with customers and coworkers. While she took great pride in her work, she was most proud of her children and grandchildren. She enjoyed attending their sporting events and any activities they took part in.
