Our beloved mother, Rhonda Gayle Mace of Lynn Haven, FL, passed away peacefully on November 13th, 2025, at the age of 62.

Rhonda was a lifelong resident of Bay County, Florida. She was a proud mother, loving grandmother, and loyal friend. Rhonda retired in 2018 after working for J.B. Homes for almost 20 years. She loved to garden, was an avid reader, a talented painter, and a pool player; however, she found the most joy spending time with her grandchildren.

Rhonda was preceded in death by her parents, Joseph Braswell Alderman Jr. and Frankie Sue Alderman; and sister, Susan Briget Pitts.

Rhonda is survived by her two children, Jeremy Paul Mace and Kayla Danielle Knetzer; son-in-law, Jared Mark Knetzer; siblings, Gresha Gaye Coffey, Joseph Bradford Alderman, and Joseph Lee Alderman; and five grandsons, Brayden Harter Knetzer, Liam Beck Knetzer, Jacob Dalton Mace, Arlo Knox Knetzer, and Anthem Jude Knetzer.

The family will receive friends at Kent-Forest Lawn Funeral Home on Friday, November 21, 2025 at 1:00PM with services beginning at 2:00PM. Interment will follow onsite at Forest Lawn Memorial Cemetery.
