Racel was the absolute most amazing woman I have ever known. She showed love to everyone and always put others before herself. I pray peace to all those grieving her loss in this world. I believe Jesus gave her a big hug when she arrived in heaven and said good job my child.

I have so many fond memories of fun times at Uncle Bill and Aunt Rachel's house growing up. Even with a houseful of crazy kids they were both so tolerant and kind. I miss them both so much!

It saddens our hearts to hear of the passing of Rachel, she was always such a kind, giving and carrying person. I first came to know Dean and Wayne and the family back in the early 70’s when we were next door neighbors. Rachel would let me go fishing and to the car races with them, it was actually my first time to go fishing and to the races, each Saturday when it was racing time she would let me pull weeds from the garden beds in exchange for a ticket. I probably would have never gotten to experience the two thing that I love doing the most if it weren't for her. We wish to send our heartfelt condolences to all of the family. May the love of those around you help you through the days ahead. Hold tight to memories for comfort, lean on your friends for strength, and always remember how much you are loved, and may you take comfort in knowing that now an angel is watching over you.
