On Thursday, February 11, 2021, Rhoda Herman of Bethesda, Md.  Beloved wife of the late Kenneth Herman; devoted and loving mother of Nadine (Alan) Levin, Eileen (Peter) Lehrer, Dianne "Donni" Rappaport; adored grandmother of Josh (Julianna) VerStandig, Mac VerStandig, Debora (Bryan) Laulicht, Suzanne (Paul) Dumaine, Gregory (Randi) Rappaport, and Melissa Pope; cherished great-grandmother of Adelaide VerStandig, Jamie Laulicht, Arthur Dumaine, Natalie, Gabrielle and Adam Rappaport, Jordan Jackson and Noah Pope; dear sister of the late Bea (David) Leventhal. Rhoda was also a beloved stepmother to Mitchell (Patti) Herman and Sandi (Jeff) Perkins and their families. Additionally, she will  be missed by her dear friend, Paul Schulman. Rhoda had a special zest for life, and she knew how to live it to its fullest. She was elegant, witty, intelligent, warm, and never wavered in doing what she believed to be right. She was a proud volunteer for the Red Cross, and a longtime supporter of charities focusing on the needs of children. She had a big heart, a love of travel, a penchant for hats, an appetite for great meals (she could pick crabs with the best), and most of all, a deep love of family. Funeral services will be held privately. Memorial contributions may be made to the charity of your choice.
