Rachel SEARLE Obituary

I'm so sorry for your loss. I only found out about Rachel's death a few days ago when Mary Duignan sent me the obituary. Rachel and I were good friends and I spoke to her last just before she went into Summerset. She and Russel accompanied me when I had to leave the house I was renting on Te Oti St., Paraparaumu Beach. She was one month older than me. She was a loving and caring person and we had been friends for many years. Much love from Catherine Glick

Hello Russell, it´s Pam Searle here. My brother David let me know of your beloved wife´s death, and I was sorry to hear it. I think she must have been relatively young so that will be hard for you, to lose your life companion. My most heartfelt sympathies to you and your extended families.

Wonderful life time memories of Rachel, going back to Whangarei days. Rachel and Russell were a wonderful, hospitable couple, always inviting friends to their home for meals. Rachel was talented in many ways, a great piano player, cross stitch, and seamstress. She mended my girls teddy's when we were on holiday with them at their bach in Raumati. Always interested in others, and kind. I am so thankful that I visited her just a few weeks ago, and she still remembered me, and smiled, and I prayed with her.
Rachel will be sadly missed, but we rejoice, she is now well, resting in God's arms.
To Russell, Janine and Louise, and your families, "Treasure all the amazing memories, and hold them close in your heart"
We send you our love and thoughts at this time.
