I am so saddened to read this notification of Rachel’s passing.  After all these  years of being without a computer, I moved back to California and finally found her last Christmas  card to me with her name and address Rachel (Ortega).  
Mi Compadre,  Rachel and I developed a closer bond while working in the smaller group at UL.  We had many laughs together, some of which did not need words, only a glance across the aisle.  She was a very special person.  Everyone wanted to be Rachel’s friend.   
I will continue to miss her.  





From the first time I met Rachel, she immediately made me feel welcomed and a part of the family... its become clear that is just her nature... at least if she likes you! hahahaha :D I'm so thankful that my life was enhanced by such a beautiful and amazing woman, and family!

Rachel, 
Thank you for the love, laughs, and memories that can never be replaced. We look forward to the next time we get to share belly and face aches from you making us laugh so hard! Until then, I promise to do my best to fill the family's tummies with love!!

I love you Auntie. I just can't find the words to explain the way I feel without you. I'm here writing this thinking about you & all the memories we made. You will never be forgotten Auntie. Give my babydoll a huge kiss for me. I know you guys are dancing in the sky right about now.. Heaven must be real nice. Love you!

Our deepest sympathy's to the Ortega family, 

I recall the 1st time meeting Rachel years back when my wife and her son were both attending USC together. 
Rachel as discussed during services had this jaw dropping sense of humor that always made everybody feel loved and welcome. 
She was very motherly to all of us, She was a proud mother, and as time went on she became a proud mother in law and shortly there after a proud grand mother. 
I will never forget her kindness the love and care she showed for everybody in her life. 
I will never forget Enriques wedding in which Rachel and Henry Sr. Both danced the the entire night away as if they were both still 21. 
Though I got to know Rachel a little bit due to the distance between us, I like to think I got to know her pretty well through her son as She and Henry have done a great job in raising two good kids in which I consider Little Henry my brother. 
Thank you so much Rachel for all of your love for each and every memory and of course for each and every laugh. 
With Love
