Rachael Anthis - Roberts
(2001 - 2018)

"Such a young life gone much too soon. Rely on God, let him comfort and sustain you.-Rev 21:3,4"

"My sister and I knew Rachael from elementary school. We moved later, but when I found out what happened, I was shocked. Rachael may God hold you in his warming arms, and I give blessings to her and her family."

"You know, everyday I’d come in to bioscience and think it was just going to be another boring class period. But then I’d see Rachael sitting at our table. She always had a way of making me smile. Even if she wasn’t smiling. She knew exactly how to make me laugh. For that, I’ll never forget all of the truly wonderful memories we both made in and out of school. "

"May the God of all comfort be with Rachael’s family. He can give us comfort regardless of how distressing our situation may be. His Word assures us: "He is near to all those calling upon him, ... and their cry for help he will hear." (Ps. 145:18, 19)"

"Rachael was always smiling and willing to help anyone who needed help. She always worked hard and tried her best. My prayers go out to the family. "

"My prayers are with your family. Jacob is one of my closest friends and through him and teen court I met Rachael who is an absolute light and who loved her bunny a whole lot. May God shine a light on your family and may she rest easy."

"Rest peacefully sweet Rachael. Thank you for being my eyes in the science classroom. You truly touched the lives of many students and teachers that were blessed to be in your presence. I’ll be praying for you and your family continually. We’ll all be missing you, dearly. You will always be one of my favorite students. Fly on beautiful angel. "

"Dear Anthis family,

My heartfelt sympathies are extended to you all for the loss of your dear and beautiful girl, Rachael. Children so precious to us, so their loss is even more difficult to bear. However, my hope is that you will find much comfort in the words of our loving heavenly Father, who has given us hope for our loved ones who have passed away. At John 5:28 & 29, God promises, “The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life.”​ How we look forward to being reunited with these loved ones at that wonderful time! Until this loving promise is fulfilled, may the fond memories you shared with Rachael also bring you solace at this difficult time. "

"The entire Brown/Jones family in Australia extend our deepest sympathies to your family in the loss of your precious daughter. Our prayers are with you all."

"Rachael was the most adorable infant, delightful little girl and sweet, graceful intelligent young lady.
Courageous and compassionate. That was Rachael."
