She will also be greatly missed by her siblings Brian Weinkauf, Christian Weinkauf, Jonathan Tramonte, Joey Tramonte, Jeff Tramonte, and Jennifer Page.

LaVonda loved dogs and cherished her home, which served as the hub of the family where countless memories were made. In her professional career, she had a passion for real estate and achieved many accomplishments, including being named Rookie of the Year in her first year. She earned several real estate certifications and served as the Vice President of the Brazoria County Board of Realtors in 2015 and was then elected President of the Board in 2016.

With all of these great achievements, nothing compared to the love she had for her family. LaVonda also enjoyed traveling the world or anything that allowed her to spend time with her family and friends.
