Bro. Rayburn,  Warren, and Julie,  Your mom has shared alot stories about you three when you were growing up,  and she loves you so much no matter what happened before.  You are in my prayers and I know I will miss talking with your mom every night.  I wish I could be there give you three what your mom wanted me to do is hug you all,  She really had a time to laugh,  cry,  share and I ministered to her about things that said in the Bible from time to time.  There is no replacement for this but your mom has shared the love that she has for you three,  If only I could share this opening with you.  May God's comfort be on you all.  Your friend unknown to you but to your mom,  Renaa

I never met Rachel Formon, but know much about her.  Rachel is the mother of Warren, my roommate and close friend of six years.  During this time Warren shared with me stories of his childhood and background in Arkansas, much of these memories were of Rachel, his devoted mother.  Warren said she taught him valuable domestics and cooking as he grew up.  And I thank her personally for the delicious southern meals Warren makes for us.  He still has the knitted blanket his mother made for himm which he keeps on the living room chair.  I don't know how much of a comfort these words are to whomever reads them, but know that Rachel's influence spread farther than even those she shared her days with or met in person.  Peace be with you all.

Rayburn, Warren and Julia, Your mom was such a lovely woman. I often think about the times we, as children, spent together with your mom and mine. I have learned one important thing from your mother, that I have always been proud of, a small childish ability to sign. She would give me a simple spelling card almost on each of my visits to her home. Due to Warren's refusing to translate for me, I would attempt to talk to your mother and your mother would smile at my ability to sign. I have been able to go through life somewhat being able to communicate with a group of people I would had never had a chance to know. I wish you all the best and I am so sorry. Rick

Comments:

So sorry to hear about your mother passing away. She had helped me to learn signing (I am still terrible at times!!) back in early 1970's and you all were kids.  I got to see Rachel a few years ago at the club meeting here in Jonesboro for the first time in several years. In spite of her hardship as much as mine, I see her a good woman. I know you will miss her terribly.  May God hold you tight in His arms..  Love, Janet~
