It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Rachel Marie Trabue, who passed away peacefully on August 8, 2025, in Yuma, Arizona, surrounded by her loving family.

Rachel was born on June 25, 1949 in Yuma, Arizona to Encarnacion and Delfina Lopez. Rachel was a devoted wife to Douglas Trabue, loving mother to Robert and Deana, and caring mother in-law to Beth and Michael.

Being a grandmother was one of Rachel's greatest joys in life. Spending the night at her house was always a treat where they would make homemade tortillas together. Rachel's grandchildren Holly, Madi, Abigale, Alayna, Owen and Mason will treasure those memories forever.

Services will be at Immaculate Conception Church on September 6, 2025 at 9:30 am for the rosary and 10:00 am for the mass.
