I'm writing on behalf of my sister, Patty Duszak who considered Rachel to be a close, dear, dear friend. She loved Rachel enormously and was very saddened to hear that she will no longer be able to converse with her. My sister Patty's health has been compromised but Rachel understood why she could not get out to see her as often as she would have liked to. Our parents were very good friends with Rachel's brother Eddie and his wife Janice. Both my sister and I will continue to think of all of them often.....
