Rachel,
It has been 13 years that you left us and it is still very hard to believe that it has been that long. you are truly missed. I know that if you were still here you would be so proud of your kids and how much they have accomplished. You would also spoil the heck out of your granddaughters, they are absolutely gorgeous. Please continue to watch over all of us and send us a little sign that you are near us.
Mom and I want to also wish you a Happy Birthday and give Dad a great big hug from us please. We love you and miss you lots.

I can't believe it has been just over 5 years. So many times I've heard some crazy gossip and thought "OMG - I gotta call Rachel - she's the only one that will GET IT!" Then I realize you already know and are looking down on me. I miss your friendship every day. I struggle to understand why such a beautiful person so full of life was taken from this earth. Maybe one day when we meet again, it will all make sense. Until then, I love you my dear friend and your family is always in my thoughts and prayers.

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
