Grandma Rachel was the definition of what a perfect grandmother is. She was loved by all and will be greatly missed. I will never forget how every time you visited, whether you were hungry or not, She always made you food. I will miss those stories and long conversations shared around the dining table. My only regret is that i did not get to visit her more. I love and miss you grandma, rest peacefully.

Grandma Rachel was never hesitant to give her love to those who were blessed with meeting her. She loved all her kids and grandkids more than life itself. She was the most kind hearted, joyful, full of life woman that I have ever had the privilege of knowing, and there is not one person who doesn't wish they had more time with her. Words can not express how deeply she will be missed. We love you so much, rest in peace Grandma Rachel.

Grandma Rachel was the light of her family's lives. She was a loving mother not only to her children, but to her grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Her departure has left this world with a little less love, a little less color, and a little less laughter. Nevertheless, those of us lucky to have known her can take solace in the memories we made with her and the eternal love that rests in our hearts for her. Grandma will be sorely missed.

My mother was a wonderful person who loved her family more than life itself. We will all dearly miss her and all the kindness she provided our family. There is nothing like a Mom and ours was the best. We will always love our Mom and have nothing but great memories of all the many things she gave us in life. Rest in peace Mom.
