Dear Aunt Mary, Uncle Dave, and Uncle Rick,

My sincere condolences to you for your early loss of your beloved niece, Rachel. Although her passing, far too soon as it was, leaves a history behind with a wealth of cherished memories to be celebrated. If not for your family bonds woven by your parents, Gladys and Ralph, over the years of family joy during pick nicks, birthdays, holidays, and weddings shared all brings this collection of collection of accumulated support for each other that formed over time. 
May you find peace over the loss of your niece with the shared strength and support of each other that formed over time and celebrate in the memory of Rachel and all the wonderful acts she did here on earth with the time she had.
Gladys and Ralph did amazing work raising all of you and you have paid it forward onto the next generation!

May God Bless you!

To the family and friends of Rachel:  Rachel was a faithful Catholic and receiving the Eucharist was a priority.I belong to Mary Queen of Apostles Parish where Rachel ' s mother is a member. I was able to bring her Holy Communion at her home during the last months of her life. Her mother was always present for my visits.I was blessed to be a servant of Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I will continue to pray for her and her family. I am sorry for your loss. However, heaven is our eternal home.  Peace of Christ, Pat Makselan

We are lucky to have known Rachel for at least 25 years. Starting at the Brook Park Recreation Center and continuing with our cherished early morning workouts. Losing a friend is difficult...losing Rachel has been very difficult. We are some of the many lucky people who had Rachel touch our lives. Our best during this time for her family, her friends and her co-workers. Thoughts continue for you.

Dearest Joanie 
My sincere condolences to you for your profound loss of Rachel at this time.  It was far too early for her time to be called. The tremendous pain felt at this time is almost unbearable if not for the tremendous uplifting memories of the love and joy she brought into your heart. Her time here will be greatly missed, but her memories will be greatly celebrated!
She will be in our thoughts and prayers as she rests in peace after her labors on earth, and may you find peace, tranquility and serenity with your sincere loss over time.
My memory of Rachel goes back to the late 1970s when her Uncle Dave and I were asked by you to baby sit with her and Doug during an evening when you and Greg had an event to attend. They were such great kids that evening and through life. You raised them very well!
May God bless you!

Dear Rusnak Family,

I am so saddened to hear of Rachel’s passing. Like many, I had the honor of working with her for many years. She was an absolute joy to be around. She was a phenomenal colleague but also, a good friend to so many. I will genuinely miss our chats and the inevitable laughter that always happened.

My thoughts are with you.

My sincerest condolences, I am so very sorry for your loss.  Rachel's light was extinguished far too soon.  My heart goes out to you during this time of unimaginable grief.

I worked with Rachel at Cole Eye. We laughed all the time. I adored her dearly.  Through the years my role has me less at Cole Eye and I was unaware she was sick. Hearing the news of her passing hit me hard. Her close friends and family are in my prayers.

Rachel and I met at work almost 20 years ago and worked together for a few years.  Rachel was always so kind and just fun to be around.  I will always remember her laugh!  She would ask about my boys when I would see her and even when she was sick going thru treatment which meant so much to me.  Rachel was just a genuine person filled with joy and love.  She will be missed.  Sending my condolences and prayers to her family.  I am so sorry for you loss.

Greg, 
My most sincere condolences. You know that she was always a favorite of mine, as I watched her grow from your young sidekick into  a  beautiful and caring adult. Gone too soon!

Such a beautiful soul who helped others. When you needed her she was there. Anything from talking, laughing, crying and a shoulder to lean on, she was there. I'm so sad, as she was more than a coworker to me.... she was a friend. Someone whom I will miss dearly. I hope she at peace, enjoying the beautiful views in Paradise.

Dear Rusnak Family,

I was fortunate to cross paths with Rachel many times in my years at Cleveland Clinic, learning that we were both Mount Union alumnae. I always looked forward to talking with her and collaborating as opportunities presented themselves. She was a kind, friendly person. Your family is in my thoughts.

With Sympathy,
Becki Algeri

Rachel was the best neighbor and friend you could ask for. There is a hole in our hearts.

Dear Rusnak Family,

Rachel was a dear friend and a person who touched the lives of everyone who knew her.  She embodied everything goodness and beauty.  She was kind, caring and giving.  The world is a lesser place without her.
