Rhonda Sue
Allison
January 6, 1954 – August 22, 2020
Rhonda Sue Allison, 66 of Scottdale, passed away at 2:30 AM Saturday, August 22, 2020 at her residence. Rhonda was born January 6, 1954 in Mount Pleasant, a daughter of the late Raymond and Ruth Laverne (Sherman) Sturtz. She married Robert G. Allison on January 11, 1975.
Rhonda was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. She graduated from Southmoreland High School, Class of 1972 and was employed for the past 20 years as the Children's Librarian at the Scottdale Public Library. Rhonda was a lifelong and faithful member of the Scottdale Church of Christ where she served as organist, choir director, and Sunday School Superintendent. She was a noted piano instructor and was a co-founder of the Scottdale Concert Band. She and her husband Rob enjoyed their longtime collaboration with the Heritage Singers & Players, Stephen Foster Performances, and Christmastime caroling.
Rhonda shared her love of classic music with her husband, sister, and three children, all of whom have decades of embarrassing photos in Period costumes to prove it. Rhonda enjoyed collecting umbrellas, listening to Celtic music, and hanging out with her four cats: Horton, Finnegan, Penelope, and Zazzle. Rhonda is remembered by her family as her favorite book character, Mary Poppins: "practically perfect in every way."
