Rhonda (Kocinski) Pagan

Rhonda (Kocinski) Pagan, born June 11, 1960, was called home Monday, July 20, 2026. There to meet her was her father, John Kocinski.

Left to carry on her traditions is her husband, Pedro Pagan, her children, Dana (Scott) Alvidrez, Ivette Pagan, Alejandro Pagan, and Lupe (Luis) Gavino, her mother, Collette Kocinski, and her brothers John (Rae) Kocinski and Steve Kocinski, as well as nine grandchildren, two nephews, and one niece.

In 2001, she married Pedro and they were lucky to have celebrated over 25 years together. She retired as a Medical Records Director in 2022 to travel and spend more time with her family and friends. Rhonda devoted her retirement years to a life of service, including a calling to serve Saint Vincent de Paul and Sisters in Christ.

In her final years, Rhonda faced cancer with incredible strength and grace. Though the disease took much, it never diminished her fighting spirit or the love she shared with those around her. Known for her excellent cooking and baking, giving nature, and positivity, she will be greatly missed by all.

Funeral services will be Monday, August 17, 2026 at 10 AM at All Saints Catholic Church, located at 1534 North Recker Road, Mesa, Arizona.

Her family invites all who knew and loved her to join in remembering a woman who touched every person she met and whose love will continue to shine through those she leaves behind. In lieu of flowers, donations to St. Peregrine Cancer Shrine (www.cancershrine.org) are suggested.
