Rhonnie Jean Molden was born on December 6, 1931, in Cincinnati, OH to the union of Gretchen Slaughter and John Johnson. She graduated from Withrow High school and took some college courses before beginning her 31 ½ -year career with the federal government.
Rhonnie was the mother of two daughters from her marriage to James Duncan. On September 29, 1972, Rhonnie united in holy matrimony with John L. Molden of Cincinnati, OH and extended her family with his four children.
Rhonnie began her career with the General Electric Air Force Department in Cincinnati when she served as a key punch operator. Later, she moved to Chicago where she worked in the Treasury Department and the Department of Labor before she retired from federal service in 1987.
Rhonnie loved selling real estate in Illinois and Michigan, and that became her second career. She enjoyed playing PO-KE-NO, traveling, and was a devoted and active member of Lincoln Heights Missionary Baptist Church. She demonstrated humble servant-leadership through working in the church’s food pantry, the Married Couples Ministry, organizing retreats, and inviting other people to experience church-sponsored events. One of her greatest joys was spending time with her loved ones.
Rhonnie Jean departed this life on August 29, 2026, with her loving family at her side.
Rhonnie is preceded in death by her parents, John and Gretchen Johnson, her siblings, Frank and Anna, and a host of cousins, aunts and uncles.
Rhonnie is survived by her devoted daughters, Lynda Y. Duncan and Angela M. Duncan-Peters; grandson, Sterling Duncan and extended family members including: Sandra Molden Fetuga, Jeffrey Molden, Stanley Chislom, Gregory Molden, Rasheedat Fetuga, Khadijah Fetuga Gohr, Ibrahim Fetuga, Jason Molden, Michael Molden, Taiesha Molden, Tiffany Chislom, Raven Chislom, Michella Molden, Lonesa Molden, Sandra Harris Edwards, Detra Johnson, and a host of great grandchildren, cousins and friends.
