Besides her spiritual gifts, Rachel had the gift of hospitality. She was a marvelous cook, and loved to entertain family, friends, and her Sunday School class. Her table was always set meticulously. One day as we were laughing and chatting around the kitchen table, the subject of tablecloths came up. She stated emphatically that “Jesus WANTS us to use white tablecloths”. We loved her voice, her sense of humor, and will always quote her humorous sayings. Lee and Jacoba
