In Loving Memory of Rhonda Gail Shaver
Sunrise: August 7, 1955 – Sunset: July 1, 2025
On the morning of July 1, 2025, just after the sun rose, our beloved wife, mother, and grandmother peacefully passed away, surrounded by love. Her journey on Earth may have ended, but her legacy of kindness, strength, and devotion lives on in the hearts of all who knew her.
She was preceded in death by her cherished parents, Millard and Betty Parsley, and her beloved big brother, Neal Parsley. Together again, we know they welcomed her with open arms.
She shared 47 beautiful years of marriage with her husband, Earl Shaver, who stood faithfully by her side through every season of life. Together, they raised two sons, Ashley Shaver and Brandon Shaver, who will forever carry her love and spirit with them.
She embraced her daughters-in-law, Brooke Shaver and Megan Shaver, with the same fierce and unconditional love she gave her own children. To her, they were not in-laws—they were daughters in every way that mattered.
But perhaps her greatest joy in life came from being Mamaw to her four precious grandchildren: Jaxon Shaver, Kade Shaver, Addyson Shaver, and Bryce Shaver. Whether it was a game, a recital, or a school event, you could always find her in the stands—cheering the loudest, smiling the brightest, and bursting with pride.
She was the heart of her family, the warm light in every room, and the unwavering rock through both trials and triumphs. She truly was the greatest mom in the world.
Her love, laughter, and example of grace will never be forgotten.
Mom's celebration of life will be Saturday July 12, 10:30 am, at Graceton Church of Christ, 9830 FM 1972, Gilmer, Tx. 75645
