Wow...I called the office and asked if I had spoken to Rachel. That's when I was told of her passing. I am saddened by this news. I remember when she would call my home to remind me of my appointment. She was the kindest person, had a great personality and very professional. I just learned that she had a son, Ivan. My prayers go up to Ivan and the family.

I am still stunned to learn of Rachel's passing. She was everything that has been said of her here and more. My prayers to her family especially Ivan.

Rachel, today is St. Patrick's Day and I am thinking about you, how you loved to celebrate all holidays, how you used to decorate the break room for Halloween or for Easter at work, how you used to bake your famous cupcake cakes for our birthdays, your egg nests for Easter, your little sweet fake burgers... I really miss you, work is just not the same without you, but you will always be in my heart. Love you always, Angela.

I had the biggest crush on Rachel in both the 8th and 9th grade.  She was smart, popular, and so very beautiful.  I am deeply saddened to learn of her passing.  The last time I saw her she was pregnant, which would make Ivan only 9 or 10.  How utterly tragic...I can't imagine losing my mom at that young age.

RIP Rachel............I will never forget you, knowing and working with you was such a pleasure. My heart goes out to Ivan & your family.

Almost seven years ago you called the office about a job.  I vividly remember that day. Everyone was already gone and i happened to pick up the office phone. You said you didn't have any dental experience. You said the insurance job wasn't challenging and wanted to change. I still remember our conversation. I still remember your voice.  You were confident yet calm. I want you to know that i never hired anyone without experience. But you had me convinced and soon I realized how lucky i was to have you in the office. You were hired to be a receptionist but soon became the manager for both offices. Not only you had all the patients name memorized but you could give me the whole history of the account. That's when i realized you are smarter than me. I thanked God for sending you to me.  I thank God for the precious time he allowed. Your smile will never leave us. Maybe God took you at such young age for us to remember your youthful smile forever.  

RIP Rachel, we will join you in due time........              Dr. Kim

Rachel you were such a sweet and caring person, with your silly and outspoken personality, never spoke bad about anything or anyone. You were truely one of a kind. You will never be forgotten.
"While we are mourning the loss of our friend, others are rejoicing to meet her behind the veil".

I am so upset I could not make Rachel's funeral, but am glad I can leave a message here. Even though many years passed I never forgot my friendship with her. I was so excited to find her on FB, & just like that she was gone. Rachel was a beautiful person inside & out. I know she will be missed so much, & her family is in my prayers!!

We love you rachel goodbye for now our angel

David and Jean and Family,

I wish I had been able to meet Rachel.  I just read her obituary and could tell she was a very special young woman.  And so beautiful!

What a terrible loss. My heart aches for all of you, especially little Ivan.  We'll see you in a few days.

RSP, Words cannot and will never describe how much you ( & Ivan) meant to me. Your Smile was radiant, your touch was priceless, and just your overall being was Divine... You are a beautiful person inside and out and im just very thankful that I have many many memories that will illuminate my mind forever.  In tough and tragic times like this, i would like to extend my heart felt condolences and gratitude to the entire Paz family and especially little Ivan; not too many people can say they have a guardian angel looking over them, but now you can bud :-)
Thank you to Jean and David for bringing this wonderful human into the world.  Without you guys, we would of never of gotten an opportunity to be in the presence of such a wonderful person.  As time moves on and life throws us more tragic bumps, one thing will remain constant and that is we all loved and adored Rachel Sue Paz and her life will live on long after all of us.  

"Even though your physical has now passed, your divine spirit will live in our lives forever.. your soul will shine on us like the sun, cherised memories are like fine wine, just get better with age, and as I grow older and wonder through my own journey... those memories will only get more tasty and linger on forever..."
