Rachelle,
I miss you so much it's unbearable. I think about everyday, and I still look for you whenever I go to Walmart. I'm sorry you suffered, and I'm sorry you were taken away from all of us. You were such a beautiful person, a caring friend, and an incredible mother. I admired you so much. You were a strong woman yet so gentle and sweet. You were so funny and easy going yet so mature. I thank God for the time we had together, and although we all miss you, it eases my pain to know that you're resting with Jesus. I love you, and to me you'll always be my angel and my sister Rachelle.

As librarian at Hanover School I had the opportunity to visit with Rachelle often. She was very prompt in returning borrowed materials and loved to read.
She had such an outgoing personality that my husband had grown to care for her like one of our own, always looking to see if she was on the register when we shopped at Wal Mart each week.
I extend sincere condolences to her family from our home and the staff at Hanover School who knew her.

Love you and miss you sweet Rachelle, Many still wonder why you and why now? But we hope you are happy where you are. May you cast your wings and smile down upon us and wrap your loving arms around your precious children and protect them from any harm and fear they may encounter. They love you and miss you sweetie and know they will see you again one day. Rachelle, your family loves you and needs you to give them some sort of sign that you are ok, and at peace. Shield your wings upon your mom and dad too, and please never leave those precious pink wings off your grandpa, he aches for you right now and your grandma is holding the family together as she always does. She is the strong one.
Love you my angel....
God bless you today and always and see you in my dreams as I have lately. Thanks for the messages you have sent me. :)

I met Rachelle a while back, and from the day I met her I liked her personality and the way she was. She always had that BIG smile on her face. I was very fortunate to have met her. She had an impact on my life that will be with me for the rest of my days. The love she had for her children and God were an example to me. I have become a better father and person since meeting her. People like Rachelle are rare in this world; she was nice, honest and most of all, she was real.
Rachelle, thank you for giving me the chance to meet you, all in all, thank you for being you, because of you I have become a better individual. Your babies will know of your goodness and the love you had for them. Thank you!

You will be in my deepest thoughts and prayes. You will be missed. Rest in Peace my dear friend. I no you will be watching over. That was the kind of person you were. Love Candice Martinez- Avina

There is alot I could say about Rachelle Martinez,Except I will
leave it to a few things about the Martinez we all knew around the hood she was something really special.Not only strong,little and
very Brave/Independent young women,but She also could let go and be very "HILLIOURIOUS" I use to laugh so hard at some of the things she say to people (so open & Direct) she had no hesitation what so ever to speak her mind and let you Know were she stood on any sittuation no matter what anyone else whould say or do. Rachelle Kept it real and was a straight leader and Extremely smart(Book & street smarts)Always glad to be center of attention in all sorts of diffrent sittuations with diffrent types of crowds.Guys like her cause she had so much to offer in a female w/ her breathtaking looks on top of her personality she was as close to being a perfect human being in the since of the way she whould make a group of people feel in a matter of mins. Just for walking into a room and being Rachelle Funny,Beautifull,intelligent,Easy going and straight up Someone we all our going to miss for the rest of our lives.
To:the Family Max,Cindy,Randy,Lil' Angello and grandparents.I can't even begin to tell you how sorry I am for your lost and I havent seen you guys for a long time and I live in denver now and I had work so I couldn't be there Phiscally,but my heart and prayers go out to you and I wish you very best and Know that With the love You feel evertime you step in the Martinez house "That love" you feel will give you the strength to overcome anything it did win my mom past away.....

there wasnt a single person who let rachelle that had a negative thing to say about her. She was an awsome person. There will never be another like her. I am so sorry for the familys loss, shes in heaven now watching over all of us. The service was beatiful, i was so impressed by the amount of people who showed up to pay their respect, now we may not have her to brighten our day but her smile is forever imprinted in my heart and her legacie with the 2 beautiful children she left behind. Rest in peace rachelle. Randy, max, and cindy i am sorry for your loss.

My Sweet Rachelle, I was so close to you as a baby and watching you grow. I was like a big sister to you until I grew my wings as you did and experienced the taste of life and went directions we never knew where they would take us. My only regret is that I did not take that picture with you last year when I seen you, I did hug you and tell you I loved you and said goodbye but not realized it would be good bye forever. Rachelle your loss breaks my heart and not being able to come to you and be with your grandma and grandpo as well with Randy and your mom and dad because they were there for me as I was growing up hurts because I did not get to say goodbye to you. You were always the sister god gave me and though we did not remain close at all times I knew and you knew if you needed anything I'd be there for you. I will miss you girl and guess the reality of you being gone now has finally hit.
We need to tell the ones we love that we love them and show we appreciate them more because we never know if we will never see them again. Rachelle, I want to dedicate to you and your family this song of rememberance, "If Tomorrow Never Comes" By: Garth Brooks Please cherish the words and always tell the ones you care and never leaves words unspoken. Rachelle, is our angel and an example, we are here today and gone tomorrow. We love you Baby Girl, Your Cousin Rachael Wright (Puryear) Please take care of my baby girl Kristyn up there and tell her momma loves her and wishes she could see her grow and turn into a beautiful girl. And Wish she could of been home to have her birthday with her brother last week. We all miss our baby girl very much and know she is also an angel like you Rachelle watching over all of us down here. Please save a spot for us for when we come home.
God bless.....

To the Martinez & Gallegoes Family:
The following poem is titled "Some People" by Flavia, I love it because it shares such a heartfelt message...
Some people stay in our lives for a while, and some come into our lives and quickly go, but they all have touched our very souls.
Some people move our souls to dance, and make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon.
They awaken us to a new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom, and a deeper understanding of what is truly important in life.
We gain strength from the footprints they have left on our hearts, and for that, we will never be the same.
I'm blessed to have had my life touched by Rachelle and to reflect upon a dear a scripture at 1 Philippians 1:3 "I thank my God always upon every remembrance of you.
May GOD comfort your heartfelt sorrw and give you strength. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
Love - Marsha Serna
