I know you were my mother in law but I felt we had a connection and an understanding. I pray you are now making a fiest for the King and his kingdom. Rest now Rachel. Love Teresa 💘 ❤
MAY GOD HOLD EACH OF YOU IN HIS ARMS AS HE HAS DONE FOR SO LONG RACHEL WILL BE REMEMBERED FOR HER SWEET, KIND, GENEROUS AND LOVING WAYS(PSALM 37;10&11)
I was Rachel's neighbor, across the street in Pennsauken. When I first moved in, she took the time to make me feel welcome in the neighborhood. Chris became part of our family, going on family outings as often as possible. She did a fine job raising her children, they were very polite.
Sorry for your loss Gino. I will always remember your mom for teaching me and Terri how to make kruschicki. It was a cookie my mom made every Christmas. Love ❤
