Penny Rhodd, Jr.

Penny “Bo” Rhodd, Jr. passed away on May 31st, 2025, in Ponca City, Oklahoma. Bo, as he was known by many, was born in Pawnee, Oklahoma to loving parents Penny Rhodd, Sr. and Deanna Rhodd on April 20th, 1965. Bo grew up in Ponca City, Oklahoma with a host of siblings. He attended Ponca City Public Schools. He worked for Conoco for over 30 years.

Bo loved being outdoors. He spent much of his time working on cars and equipment and tinkering with just about anything he could get his hands on. He loved landscaping and taking care of the land. When he wasn’t busy outside, he spent much of his time cooking and caring for his family. He was always looking for a new recipe to try. He could always be counted on to feed everyone at any gathering. More than anything Bo loved his family and spending time with his grandkids and family celebrating life and their time together. He enjoyed weekend mornings drinking coffee and visiting with his best friend Pat Walker.

So many were left behind to treasure their memories and time with Bo including his wife, Mary Rhodd; children, Arlen Rhodd, Andrea Rhodd and fiancé Maribel Ramos, Lewis Rhodd, Sr. and fiancé Sunny Haze, Leanna Rhodd and husband Rollar Warrior, Sr., James Lasley, Jr., and Brenda Standsblack; his grandchildren, Rollar Warrior, Jr., Yolanda Warrior, Lewis Rhodd, Jr., and many others; his siblings, Samuel Naive, Darrell Rhodd, Tommy Rhodd, Bobby Rhodd, Sr., Cheryl Rhodd, Elizabeth Yahola, and Alvina Rhodd Byrd; his mother, Deanna (Waters) Rhodd; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, aunts, and many more.
