Born in Phillipsburg, Rachel worked as a landscaper at ACF Landscape in Washington, her obituary says.
Rachel was passionate about spending time in nature and loved outdoor activities like hiking, camping, fishing, and walking her dogs, her memorial says.
Above all, Rachel embraced her role as a devoted mother to her son, Brandon, and daughter, Grace Brobst. She is also predeceased by a daughter, Connie Rose.

Meanwhile, tributes poured in for Rachel on social media:
“So heartbroken,” Sally France writes. “How will I never see you again in this lifetime. I love you. I’ll always miss you. You were a force to be reckoned with.”
Rachel’s funeral was being held privately.
“Your laughter was contagious,” France writes. “Your energy was contagious. The abundance of love you had for your family and friends had no bounds and will never be forgotten…Rest now, we love you.”
