Rachel was a part of my family for a long time I miss her and her laugh, we had many laughs together. She always would try to get me to go down the healthy isle in Food Lion to make dinner. My heart is broken and I am sending prayers to all family and friends

I am deeply saddened by the news of Rachel passing. Rachel had a contagious smile and personalty like no one else. She would light up a room the moment she walked in. I have so many great memories with Rachel and I am so blessed that I was able to call her my friend. She was at one point more of a sister than a friend to me and I will cherish those memories and times forever. I will continue to pray for the Partlow family and for all the friends that Rachel had.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.
