Rachael passed away (far too soon) with heavy hearts on August 26, 2023, in Fort Worth, Texas at the age of 52. Rachael was born on April 17, 1971, in Denver, Colorado, to her parents Elain and Michael. She married Thomas Chris Poe on July 28th 1990. She leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness, and unwavering strength. She loved hanging out at Starbucks spending time with her friends. Rachael has a passion for creating flowers in her garden, and loved her kids David, Koree, Michael and her niece Angel and pets Lexie, Lincoln and Luna. Her laughter over a simple thing as I-Phone games or videos brought joy to our times together. She was a lover of 80 and 90’s rock - Ask her the question and she would know the name of the song, the band’s name and singer. Our favorite times with Rachael were filled with laughter and stories from back in the 90’s. She was the best kids MOM: Stayed up all night when you were sick. Mom became your personal valet and taxi driver. She went to your performances and photographed your every move.
A memorial service to honor Rachael’s life will be held on Saturday, September 16, 2023 at the Lucas Funeral Home located at 1601 South Main, Keller, Texas 76248. The Memorial Service will take place from 2:00pm to 3:30pm. For those wanting to leave Rachael with a message and/or pictures to take with her to the Colorado Rocky Mountain’s National Park; a box will be available during the service. Rachael’s memories will be a source of comfort and strength and the image of her smile will be a reminder to let us all know how special she was. I loved her more than anything in the world and will miss her.
