I had the privilage of knowing Rachel and sharing a home with her in the late 90's. I recall a dynamic, intellectual, fun and to use your terms Mike, a solid and dependable lady who had an impact on anyone she came across. She certainly helped me out of a dark phase in life at the time and I am eternally grateful to her for this. My thoughts and love are with you all at this challenging time, but I know Rachel will always be watching out for you from wherever she is. Rachel, you are fondly remembered and missed xx Craig Rodgers
