Rafaela was born in La Linea, Spain. Her early years were spent in Gibraltar, where she met the love of her life, Albert Bensusan. They came to the US in the late 60s and built a great legacy. She was a pillar of strength and support for the family. Rafaela worked in Office Services for Burnes, Doane, Swecker and Mathis for over 20 years. She will be remembered for her fierce loyalty to her family, love of gardening and her wonderful cooking. She will be deeply missed by her family and all that got to know and love her.
Memorial and graveside services will be privately held by the family.
