Dear Spurrier Family, My deepest sympathy on the loss of your beloved Rachel. I taught Rachel at Clelian Heights. She was delightful, friendly, and loving to all. May the Good Shepherd welcome her into His heavenly kingdom. Love and prayers, Sister Maria.

My deep condolences to the superior family. When I volunteered at Clelian Heights as a teenager I remember seeing Rachel's smile and bright eyes every day. Later, when I became a teacher there she brightened my days for nearly 15 years. May she ready in peace in the living arms of our Good Shepherd.❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

I will always remember Rachel’s gentle voice, her block-style handwritten notes, saying “Miss Vanessa, may I please have some coloring books,” her impeccable folding (laundry) skills, and her love of music. I feel fortunate to have known her. May God welcome her to heaven and grant peace to all who loved her.

Kate and Family, My sweet Rachel. My pinch and a punch for the first of the month. She always got me first. The one time I got her she was ready with a pinch and a kick for being so quick. She filled my heart with much love and compassion. She will soar as high as the eagle. Rest my sweet angel. Love you Kate. Liz Foote.
