Rachel, old friend — I think of you and the word that comes to mind is KIND. Over all the years that we’ve known each other, having coffee together was the greatest delight. When all the news was shared and all the words said, just sitting together in silence over the hot, dark drink was all that was needed. Carol Leffler
My baby sister… you left us way too soon and will be greatly missed. I am so glad for all the time we have had together growing up and over the years. You are a wonderful, kind, generous and sweet person. I love you.
–Your brother David
Good bye Rachel
