A devoted care giver, Rachel dedicated her life to her family and those around her. She brought joy to everyone she met, her selflessness and generosity was evident in everything she did. 

She loved art, decor, decorating, quilts, pretty bedding, knitting, sewing, crocheting, arts & crafts, coloring, card games, Solitaire, thrifting, Luis Miguel, Michael Buble, Nat King Cole, Johnny Mathis, concerts, musicals, snacks & sweet treats, especially popcorn and chocolate! 

Rachel was the heart of our family. She was the sweetest, bestest mom and gramma in the whole wide world! Her smile, generosity, kindness, sense of humor and contagious laugh will be treasured always and forever. Her love and light will remain eternal, shining brightly in the hearts of all who knew her. Her unwavering spirit of selfless love and boundless joy will continue to inspire and uplift us.
