Over the years, I had the pleasure of working with Rachelle at the CRA. She was such a kind caring individual always putting others before herself. My deepest sympathies to the Halpenny family.

Rachelle always wanted to make the most out of her life, and she did.

We remember her visits to the trailer, her sense of humor, and her stories. It was was a pleasure to be around her.

She will always be in out memories and in out hearts.

I had the pleasure of serving on the Headquarters Advisory Committee for Employees with Disabilities at CRA with Rachelle. She was a wonderful, bubbly, positive person who made a difference in my life and I am sure in many others. I am very sorry for your loss.

My condolences to the Halpenny family.
Rachelle was dear friend and true inspiration for her colleagues at the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). I was lucky to have had the opportunity to work and learn from her. She made a positive difference for many people working with disabilities at the CRA.

"A woman first, an athlete second, and way at the other end of the scale, disabled" this is how Rachelle (my sister-in-law) described herself while she was competing all over the world and winning lots of medals for Canada (mostly gold) in rifle shooting, table tennis, swimming, archery and track and field.

Rachelle, it's the athlete (too often ignored) that I want to light a candle for today. Even better, to carry the Olympic Torch for. (I still remember our long conversation, a couple of years ago, about your athletic achievements.). Bye Rachelle. Miss you. Salut Rachelle. Gros bisous. xoxox
