*******************************
8/29/10 - All of Rachel's family have passsed on now except for one brother, Clarence.
I think she was the first to die in our class.
She came from a big family and was very quiet and shy. She lived in the Notchey Creek community and was in our class there and went to Notchey Creek church for a while but then moved to another area. She didn't graduate with us because I think she quit school. She was a very sweet girl.
