Rachel, We had a special Saturday night relationship serving at the altar. I will always cherish those times. You were undoubtedly the happiest person I’ve known. Always a smile on your face. I’ll bet God feels He has a great additional to His altar!
Rachel, long life, well lived! We still have the beautiful butterfly ornaments you gave us for Christmas one year. I remember you every year when we hang them. My condolences to your family. RIP, dear Sister.
