RHODA
“RHODIKA

WEISS, 88, of
Phoenix, Ariz.,
died Nov. 23, 2019.
She was a
vibrant woman,
one who literally lit up the
room and was a definite head
turner whenever she entered.
Rhodika Cosmetics was
her biggest accomplishment.
It was her passion, changing
many lives for the better. Her
immeasurable compassion
and great understanding were
astounding.
She loved and adored her
two daughters. She was a huge
fan of her son-in-law, Alex,
who she thought was the kind-
est and most gentle human
being she’
d ever known.
Four years ago, when she

was diagnosed with stage
4 colon cancer, she was
given six months to live. She
fought the fight her way: the
holistic way, which extended
her life another four years.
Rhoda was a proud woman
who believed there was no
obstacle that couldn’
t be
overcome.
During the last days of
her life, she would try to
speak about how strong the
children really are. Daughter
Debra said, “Mom, we are
all strong and have survived
the school of hard knocks.”
Rhoda responded, “Yes, sur-
vivors with a smile!”
Mrs. Weiss is survived by
her daughter, Lauren Weiss
of Phoenix; daughter and
son-in-law, Debra and Alex
Winkler of West Bloomfield.

She was the beloved wife
of the late Herbert Lenchner;
loving daughter of the late
Ida and the late Meyer
Kramer.
Contributions may be
made to: Hospice of the
Valley, hov.org; Kivel
Campus of Care, kivelcare.
