Rhoda was a devoted member of Eastside Assembly of God in York, where her faith was the foundation of her life. Her relationship with God was central to who she was and guided her throughout her journey. Rhoda loved her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren dearly and always looked forward to spending time with them. She was especially cherished by her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who lovingly called her “Gra Gra.” Rhoda also enjoyed being social and spending time with others, making connections and sharing conversations with those around her. She especially enjoyed traveling throughout the country with her beloved husband, creating many treasured memories along the way.

Culp and wife, Terriann of York; nine grandchildren; 18 great grandchildren; sister, Joanne E. Glatfelter of York; numerous nieces and nephews; and her beloved dog, Lizzie.
