Rachael has passed away

Written by Rachael's Mom:
Quote:
Our sweet little girl Rachael Emily died at 11:50 pm on July 2, 2008.She is at home with the Lord and we are not. We don't know how to go on. But we will find a way. We will somehow find a new way to do everything with a hole in our family, right in the middle.Rachael died very peacefully and 2 someones tonight are in the middle of receiving lifesaving kidneys. I hope someday to know who they are.We don't know when a funeral will be yet.We just want to finally sleep now that she is finally okay. We will face tomorrow when it comes.


Oh, how my heart aches for this family. I do not even know them. I did get a note out to them which probably will arrive today or tomorrow. Now I have to let my Becca know. She is at camp and she is going to be heartbroken. She had told me (before she left for camp), that she will save Rachael's last e-mail forever.

These verses are for Rachael's family:

John 14:18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

Joshua 1:9 Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

Also, as I just typed this my husband called to say that my son got in an accident and his truck is totaled. He is ok.

To Rachael's family:

Your Purple Princess is with the Lord now and someday when we all walk into heaven we will see her and her beautiful purple crown. A crown of royalty...a princess.

I think I will go now and cry.
