Dominick / Nan Rachel / Grandmom Rachel

Rachel lived life with passion. Rachel could most often be found sewing for her family during the early years of her life. She made several of her nieces' school clothes. She had to give up the hobby only about two years ago. The other interest she had was volunteering. She was awarded for her many thousands of hours at Salvation Army having served forty years of service with them. Although she did not have any biological children of her own, she was involved in helping many children. She was a foster parent for many years. She also kept family members children while their parents had to work. She loved babies. Bingo was an activity she truly enjoyed and continued to participate in this year. That same enthusiasm carried into family, friendships, and community. Rachel will be remembered for her tenacity and fun for life.
