Not sure what to say?

I have been trying to think what to write in this book and I still am at a loss of words. I will truly miss Rachel. She was my sacastic twin. I loved her in High School and I wish I would've kept in touch with her after we were done. Rachel will be missed dearly by me. We had great times in hs and I will keep her memory in my heart forever. My condolences go out to the McGovern family.

I am so saddened to hear about the passing of Rachel. I heard from one of our classmates today (August 30th), I could not believe what i had heard, i started to cry. I started to reminsce about the classes Rachel and I had together. She would always make me laugh because she would tease me about anything. I will truly miss her. She will truly be missed by all. The Hudson family share our condolences to her family and friends.

While I am so sad about losing Rachel, I am grateful that she was able to be such a big part of my life while she was here. I always had a special relationship with her. No matter how long we would go without talking or seeing eachother we would always pick up right where we had left off. I can honestly say that some of my best and funniest memories involve Rachel. My words can't do justice to this amazing person who made me laugh like no one else ever could. I loved to be around her...

My thoughts and prayers to Rachel, and her family at this difficult time.

There are no words to describe what a wonderful person Rachel was. I will never forget the times we shared in cheerleading, Stony Brook University, & working at Shore Drugs together. Rachel walked me to my car every night after work at Shore Drugs to make sure I was safe which is just one example of how caring she was. She always made me laugh and was always there for me whenever I needed her. My deepest sympathy goes out to her family, Jesse, and all of her friends.

I've never met anyone quite like Rachel. She was by far the funniest person I've ever known! I am so grateful to have known her and she will always hold a special place in my heart. When times get bad, I will look back on all of the memories we shared, including homecoming, summers at my house, and family gatherings. She was not only my best friend, but also part of my family. Though we grew apart over the past couple of years, there was never a day that went by when I didn't think about her....

No matter how long I stare at this blinking cursor the right words are never going to come to me...Rachel was an amazing person and a very dear friend to me. Rachel was as funny as she was beautiful and as smart as she was caring. I am proud to call her one of my best friends, and happy to say that she had a profound impact on my life. Damn that girl was funny. As sad as it is to look back on her life, that was way too short, I am happy to say that my memories of Rachel make me laugh and...

I'm terribly saddened by your loss and offer my deepest condolences.

My deepest sympathies to the entire Mcgovern family from myself as well as on behalf of the entire Stony Brook Seawolves Family. Rachel as well as her family will be in our prayers during this most difficult time.
