You touched the hearts and minds of so many. I am grateful to have met you. I am saddened by the thought of so many adults and students who will miss out.
I have nver met Rachel but after reading about her and hearing a bit of her story from a mutual friend I am touched by her humble courage. Absolutely stunning. So glad she has entered her rest in the Lord yet not having her here to impact more lives seems like such a tragedy. I’m sure she has heard well done from her precious Jesus.
I have so much to say and just cant seem to put it into words. Rachel was an amazing person and a great friend. She will truly be missed here on this earth. I have very few pictures of her and I together, but will hold our wedding photos more dear since she is the one who took them. Thanks for the impact you made in my life Rachel! Missing you!
I’m so thankful for Rachel. Her courage, faith, humor, and will miss her till we see her in heaven.
You were such a bright light for our RMS family! Rachel, you will be missed! We love you!
I love you, Rachel, and I’m grateful for the unconditional love and friendship you showed me throughout my life. I’m so thankful for the assurance through our Lord Jesus Christ that I will see you again.
My deepest sympathy to the Griffith family and friends. May the God of comfort strengthen you at this difficult time and give you peace of mind from Isaiah 25:8.
I am so sorry for your loss. I have such fun memories of conversations with Rachel in college. She was always kind to me and made me smile! We reconnected through Facebook in the past several years and that was nice to communicate that way for a bit. We had hoped to get together and I am sorry that it didn’t happen. I look forward to seeing you again in Heaven, Rachel. Praying for you all.
Rachel was my Cousin on her Father’s side. I always looked up to her, and her sister Becca growing up. Rachel had an incredible gift of making people laugh even in the most grim of situations. Her wit, timing and perfect delivery would always make me laugh until my sides hurt. She had this ability to use sarcasm brilliantly, always laughing, and always in good fun. I know that she is cracking jokes with the Angels now. She is loved and missed by all of her family.
