WARREN – Rolinda Rae Rhodes, 75, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2026.
Rolinda was born Jan. 16, 1951, in Warren, the daughter of Roland and Ergomina Tabacco Iannucci.
A proud graduate of Warren G. Harding High School's Class of 1969, she went on to dedicate over 30 years of her life to caring for others as a respiratory therapist, eventually retiring from Trumbull Memorial Hospital.
Outside of her career, Rolinda possessed a vibrant spirit and a passion for life. Her greatest joy came from the family she built, and she cherished every moment spent hosting and attending lively family dinners. Rolinda was known by all who met her for living her life on her own time, usually being fashionably late. She was also an enthusiastic NASCAR fan, well-known for passionately yelling at the television to offer the drivers unsolicited advice. One of her favorite memories was attending the Daytona 500 alongside her sons, family and their close friends. Rolinda also loved watching football, playing cards and Scrabble with her friends at The Suites, and was an avid QVC shopper.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 50 years, Larry James Rhodes Sr., whom she married on Jan. 30, 1971.
Her memory will be cherished by her four children, Larry Jr. (Jennifer) Rhodes, Victoria Wilkinson, Rachel (Michael) Williams, and Roland Sr. (Stacey) Rhodes. Rolinda was also blessed with 10 grandchildren; five great-grandchildren, and numerous grand-pets, all of whom she loved and adored beyond measure.
Rolinda will be laid to rest with a private ceremony in All Souls Cemetery in Bazetta.
Arrangements were entrusted to Peter Rossi and Son Memorial Chapel Funeral Home.
