Dearest Rachelle,
You touched the lives of so many children by listening when no one else could hear, by caring when no one else bothered, and by offerring hope when everyone else had given up. You were so many things to so many children and your memory will never be forgotten because you will live in their hearts forever.
I too will always remember your caring heart, your warm smile, and your infectious laugh. Taco Tuesdays will never be the same. Be at peace my friend.
