I know how much you were loved....I just needed to speak up and tell everyone that you are so safe and watching over so many people

Bill and I would like to express our deep sorrow and condolences to Rachael's family. We have many happy memories of Rachael chasing all the younger kids around and laughing freely with them. She was such a vital part of this family and will be sorely missed. Even though she is physically gone from our lives; her memories, her joy of life will be with us forever!

I will miss Rachael's sweet smile. She worked in our office in the library and was one of the best student workers. She would sit in the library often,, she said it was warmer in the library than her apartment, I miss seeing her there. My sympathy for Rachaels family. She is with her mom now as angels.

My niece was an amazing young lady who loved her family and God. She will be greatly missed. But she is with her mamma. She is finally home.

Such a sweet person gone too soon. United with your mom who loved you so very much. As a part of the family you will surely be missed. You could always put a smile on in the midst of all your suffering. No more suffering or tears for you. Safe at home with Jesus. Dan so very sorry for all that you have lost. May God give you strength, peace and the wisdom to go on. Blessings.

I met Rachael in her freshman year at one of the InterVarsity events. Even though we're not in the same graduating class but I got to see her and talk to her almost every week around campus. She's very friendly and humorous. It's sad to see her go but I know we're going to see each other again soon.
I'm going to miss you Rachael and our three-hours long lunch conversation at Letchworth dining hall. You have brought so much joy into my life and thank you so much for being a great friend. I appreciate you and all that you've done. Even though it's still very difficult for me and others to accept that fact that you're no longer with us but I am at peace because I know where you are now and you don't ever have to deal with pain and sickness again. Enjoy your new beginning in heaven. I will see you soon!

I love you cousin, heaven is a much better place with you and mom reunited. Please pray for healing. I'm sorry Dan, Ben, Christian and Rebecca for what you all have endured the last few months. I enjoyed our Saturdays we had while your mother would take grandma out shopping while I watched grandpa. I will cherish those memories for the rest of my life.

Cousin, I miss you so much. You were my family and one of my closest friends. Your faith in the midst of all your suffering inspired me. Your sense of humor about life brought Joy to those around you. I am thankful to have you in my life and I will always love you.

Rachael; a beautiful young woman, you are with your mother now, and with Jesus, and your grand father. This world will miss, I miss you although I did not know you well. But I do know that in heaven were you are now, there is no pain, no sadness, no illness and no memory of these earthly things. There is just peace love, happiness, and all this endless...You are just too good for this world, and everyone who knew you will miss you.
