Rachael Bennett

To The Families:

I have been putting this off too long only because it still hurts to know that Rachel is no longer here on earth but I rejoice in knowing that she is with the Lord and all her other loved ones(and my love ones and mother Mrs.Katie M. Howard).Our families were good friends from catching fish to serving on the deacon,deaconess board to teaching sunday school,singing in the choirs,on the kitchen and tape ministries,etc. many years ago at Mt.Olive Baptist...

It truly pains my heart,yet memories of a beautiful person eases that pain.
Growing up with her and the rest of family is a vision of hard yet happy times. With deepest sympathy...Louis

Heavenly Father and He will take very good care of her. My prayers and with you and your family.

Absent from the body but present with the Lord.

Valerie,
I am saddened to hear of the loss of your mom, my prayers are with you and your family.
I can say from experience that it is definately a healing process that only God can take care of. I lost my mom in June and still think of her daily or at certain times just need to pick up the phone and call her.
It has been many years since we met and became friends at Crouse. If you ever need to talk I am here for you.
There is no hurt that God can not heal.

To the Bennett and Hairston families, We were saddened to hear of the passing of your loved one. Our prayers are with you as you face today and the days to come. May your memories bring you comfort.

Jimmy and Bobby I am sorry I was not able to be with you at this time of lost, but my prayers are with you and I know that God will sustain you and all of your family.

Your cousin

Dear Family, Please accept my deepest sympathy upon Rachel's passing. She was a dear cousin to me and my siblings and even though we know that God knows best, we deeply mourn her passing.

Rachel was truly a jewel and I admired her approach to life, her deep and abiding faith in God and the inspirational way she handled her illness.

I deeply regret that distance and handicaps prevent my being there with the family to share memories and celebrate her life, but know that I...

Dear Valerie, Janie, and Family,

We will all miss Rachel. She was a very beautiful person. I enjoyed getting to know her again. She was funny, loving, kind, and outspoken.

Please know that though we are sad, she is enjoying seeing Jesus Christ, her family and friends.

We love you and will continue to pray for you.
