Rachel, you have always been my best friend. Back in the day during summer camp on Herman and Best Street, when we were kids, you were the little girl with the great big smile! As we entered adult hood we shared so many good memories that will last a lifetime! Up in Heaven, I know you will keep everyone laughing. You have earned your wings girl. The last conversation we had, you said to me, “Phyllis, you have always been my girl, and I love you!” I then said, “I love you to!” Even though, I can’t see you or talk to you on the phone like we use to do……You are always in my heart!!!!! Shawn and Shamyra, I will keep you in my prayers. God Bless the Crawford Family!
Love Always,
Phyllis

Hi Rachel,
You have been missed at work yet we did not know your circumstance. It was your personality to take care of everyone else and bare all things put in your path. I remember talking to you while you were in the hospital and you telling me that you had just helped the lady in the bed next to you! You will be missed by the staff of the 5th floor at Deaconess and the patients.
To Jaz and Rashana, Moma Della, and Family You are in our prayers. Dayan and the 5th floor at Deaconess
