I didn’t know Rachel well, but I know she had a beautiful heart and a love for helping people. We were both on a trip to Cedar Rapids in 2020 to take supplies and help with clean up after the derecho and she was a very hard worker and never complained, a real asset to the group. My prayers are with all who are grieving this tragic loss.
