I am so honored to have been Rachel's Aunt Susie. She has been in my heart for over 27 years and she will continue to have a place there until we meet again. You are all in my prayers and you have my love and support. Jesus answered the question, "What shall I do to inherit eternal life." This is the answer: "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself." This describes Rachel perfectly. Beautiful Rachel is in the presence of the Lord. Love and peace to you all.

We are so incredibly sorry! Can’t imagine what you must be going through but know our thoughts and prayers are with you and Eva! You are such a great guy that I have always respected and I know you must be an incredible dad as well. You are going to get through this and know you are on the wings of lots of prayers and support. I wish we were closer to be able to help but if there is anything I can do, please know I would be honored to do so. Take care and God Bless!!

"Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father's house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going."
John 14:1-4
Comforted knowing Rachel is with Jesus and will be with those who love her.

In the few times i talked to Rachel, courage and love just poured out from her. She was an amazing woman, wife, mother, sister, and daughter. Michael is so blessed to have her as a sister. She has been a great inspiration to me by having tremendous faith in uncertain circumstances, her love and devotion to Matt, and her sweet love in parenting Eva. She is amazing! I know she's in a much better place now in the sweet embrace of God without pain or tears. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. ? Much love, Brittany

Her short life on Earth blessed and inspired us all. Rachel is truly beautiful inside and out and that is how she will be remembered. Although she lost her battle with disease, she won the ultimate battle. Rest in peace dear cousin. We love & miss you.

Rachel will be missed by so many of us. Her smile was amazing, her eyes lit up the room, her friendship was faithful and brought such warmth and compassion to us. She loved Jesus more every day and now she is looking into His eyes and heart and she is complete. I love you Rachel, you inspired me in so many ways. We will all be praying for Eva and for Matt. You are a beautiful person!!

To the entire Kirchner and Hecker family-our sincere condolences to you during this difficult time. Rachel was truly a beautiful person inside and out. She always made others come first, even during her difficult days these past few months. She truly changed my life and helped me to find God again. She was an inspiration to me and I can honestly say one of the dearest friends I've ever been blessed with. She truly showed us how we should strive to live our lives, and I will never stop striving to follow God like she did. Her prayers for our little girl never ceased to amaze me. She was battling so much and still stopped to pray for my baby girl. Even so far as coming over the day before she had surgery to pray over her when she herself felt awful. I will never forget her love and kindness.
Our prayers and thoughts are with you as you learn to live life without your sweet Rachel. We are always here if you ever need anything. We miss her more than anything, so I cannot imagine what you are feeling right now.
Please know our prayers are with you
Love
Joanne, Patrick, Evelyn, Sophia, and Joseph Chenery
