Audra Irene Rhoades of Grace Village Retirement Community in Winona Lake, Indiana and formerly a long time resident of Pierceton, Indiana passed away at Grace Village Health Care. Audra was a virtuous, quiet woman of great faith. At 10:47 p.m. on Tuesday, May 22, 2018 she stepped on shore and found it Heaven…took a hand and found it God’s…breathed her first breath of new air and found it celestial…and waking up in Glory and found it Home!
She was born on January 24, 1923 in Clay Township, Kosciusko County, Indiana to Arlie F. Beigh and Laurena (Karns) Beigh. On November 26, 1942 in Walkerton, Indiana she was married to Ernest F. Rhoades, who passed away on August 15, 2000.
Audra was lifetime resident of Kosciusko County, Indiana, residing the majority of her life in Pierceton, Indiana, and she was a 1941 graduate of Claypool High School. She was very involved with the Warsaw/Winona Lake Gideon Auxiliary since the 1960’s, and was a volunteer coordinator for the Kosciusko County Historical Society for many years as well as being involved with child evangelism. Audra was an excellent cook, enjoyed gardening, and was a member of the Atwood Christian Fellowship. She was a praying mother and grandmother and will be forever missed.
She will be lovingly remembered by her four sons: Ron (Judy) Rhoades (Holland, Michigan); John (Aggie) Rhoades (Ft.
