MS. RHODIA AKINS April 1, 1965 – June 6, 2021
This will always be a remembrance to a beautiful lady, Ms. Rhodia Akins, an amazing woman who has always had a kind, giving heart; someone that you can depend on, a straightforward woman. She says what she means, and means what she says.
She was my best friend, loved me as I loved her, just was there for each other; there’s not very many people that I could be myself with, but she is one of them and I am so thankful that you came into my life, Ms. Akins.
Ronnie Gaines.
