Rhonda J. Daminski

Rhonda J. Daminski, 55, of Dunkirk, NY, passed away on June 7, 2025, after a courageous and

dignified battle with cancer. She was surrounded by the love of her family, including her loving

companion, Don E. Clement.

Born in 1969, Rhonda was a resident of Dunkirk and a proud member of Blessed Mary Angela

Parish. Her deep faith, generosity, and vibrant spirit were guiding forces throughout her life. She

was also actively involved in numerous local social clubs and community efforts, always

bringing people together with warmth and kindness.

Rhonda was a beloved mother to Alyssa Clement and Don M. Clement (Alexis Barber).

Rhonda’s 36-year companionship with Don E. Clement was built on love, loyalty, and a lifetime

of shared memories.

She is survived by her siblings: Amy Reed (Timothy Reed) and Douglas Daminski. Rhonda was

also a loving aunt to her cherished nieces and nephews: Genevieve Riddle (Zachary

Kolodziejski), Gillian Reed, and Quinton Smith.

Rhonda was preceded in death by her parents, Robert Daminski and Deborah Richardson, whose

memory she held close to her heart.

She found joy in life’s simple pleasures—camping with family, cooking meals filled with love,

and exploring new places. Her laugh, her strength, and her generosity left a mark on all who

knew her.

 In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Oishei Children’s Hospital of Buffalo through the

Patricia Allen Fund.

Rhonda’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. She will be deeply missed and

forever remembered by her family, friends, and all who were blessed to know her.
