Sonya Rhea Colclasure

January 15, 1960 - February 14, 2021

Sonya Rhea Morningstar was born January 15, 1960, to parents Clifford Darrel and Marjorie Lillian Morningstar, both served in the U.S. Navy, with 5 kids Dawn, Sonya, Robin, Cliff, and Brad. She graduated from Lebanon, Ohio then graduated from culinary school. She then worked in many places but two places for many years, the Best Café of Lebanon, Ohio and J.W. Cobbs of Ponca City, Oklahoma. She was very loved by family and by her customers. As luck would have it, she was beloved and cherished by two men who preceded her in death Joe Colclasure and Jeff Mathews. She left behind her children Catherin Smith, Chelsea and Brad Benefiel, Rhea and Tony Burlingame and lastly Shane Morningstar; her grandkids Marcus Ferry, Beth Benefiel, Zayne Cottman and Liberty Burlingame. She was beloved by many nieces, nephews, cousins, uncles and many more for her sarcasm, intellect, and strength. Many jokes were made during her last days on her fight for every day, which she did with smiles as best she could muster. From our family, we wish to say thank you to Stumpff Funeral Home and Crematory for taking care of her.
