Radonna Connelly

Radonna was born on October 28, 1954 in Willits, California to Ernest Stone and Betty Hogan. She lived in California until the age of 4 or 5 when her family relocated to Dallas, Oregon. She graduated from Dallas High School and attended some college. She was blessed with two daughters and would raise them in Dallas and for short time until they moved to Illinois, returning to Oregon in 1992. Radonna would work as a CNA and later as a medical assistant at Firehouse Diabetes and Endocrine Center, where she retired from 12 years ago. Radonna loved parties, playing pinnacle, singing karaoke, gardening, crocheting and crafts, and reading a good book, and mystery movies. She loved the beach; she didn’t have a favorite one in particular but loved going to see the waves and swells. Eventually when her health no longer allowed her to walk to the beach she would drive her car close enough where she could enjoy the ocean views. Radonna passed away on March 9, 2019 in Dallas, Oregon at age 64 after a long illness. She was preceded in death by her parents. She is survived by her daughters Nichole Stone and Kisca Kay (Phillip) Merryman; grandchildren, Cody Stone, Tirza Stone, Mary Merryman, Aaron Merryman, James Merryman, Zander Merryman, Taylor Campbell, Lillian Elliott, Angelina Hogan, Jayden Campbell and Mikey Campbell; great grandchildren, Oliver Stone, Walter Stehlin and Edward Hogan; siblings, twin brother, Roger Stone, Tony Stone and Roxie Wood. A celebration of life is planned for a later date. Please leave online condolences at weddle-funeral.com
