Rachael ( Aunt Rach) was a favorite of our family, to say the least! Her sense of humor was remarkable, and her teasing was relentless! I am so happy that my children had the opportunity to know and love her! We teased that she and her sisters were the original models of “the Golden Girls “! We will miss her immensely. Rest peacefully with Pat and with her sisters, Helen and Elletta.
I always looked forward to visiting her when I was in town. When she smiled and giggled, that was the best, it warmed my heart. Feisty to the end. I will truly miss her. May she find her way into the Lord's arms.
Thoughts and prayers to the family!!

Getting to know Rachael was a pleasure. She loved her kids and I loved hearing stories of her family. She raised some amazing daughters and I enjoyed getting to know them as well. Hugs to you all and thank you for trusting me to care for your mom!
Your mom was a beautiful person and great friend. I will have some Masses said for her at Holy Family. I will be out of town Tuesday and will have to miss the funeral. Jean Long
My sincere Condolences to The family. I met Rachael when we both worked for UCP. I considered Her a great friend and we laughed together a lot. I thought about her often. I know she will be missed.
