I remember Rachel very well from my younger days at York Baptist Church and also her being friends with My mother, Onnolee Keller. They stayed in touch for many years. She will be missed.

I sent Rachel a Christmas card letting her know of Mom's passing in October (Onnolee Nichols Keller) and got a sweet letter back from her; she and Mom have always been in touch and always shared birthday cards, Rachel being 2 weeks younger than Mother.... Now, she will have a good friend to keep her company!

I will always remember and cherish the times our two families spent together when we were growing up. It is one of those fond, loving memories that grow sweeter with time. You are loved so much and my heart and prayers will be with you as you walk this walk.
