Rachel Michelle Brown  was born on September 7, 1976 in Philadelphia Pennsylvania to the late Elizabeth Brown and Charles Bagwell.

Although Rachel received her formal education through the Philadelphia School System, she earned her high school diploma in Job Corp of Virginia.

Rachel then went to the Advance Career Training School in Upper Darby, Pa. where she received her certified nursing assistant certificate.

Rachel worked as a CNA at the Care Pavilion Nursing and Rehabilitation Center for seventeen years until she fell ill.

Rachel's loving and caring demeanor caused her to be will liked.

Rachel loved her family and friends. She would always say "I love you", when parting ways, or ending a phone conversation. Even if she greeted you with her big smile, if she saw something wrong she didn't have a problem speaking her mind. (And always made sure she got the last word). That's our Rachel.

Rachel leaves to cherish her memory, her three children, Janelle and Jakiyah Parker, and Jarell Brown, one grandson Josiah, four brothers, John (Sonia), Anthony Sr, Charles (Jomecka) Brown, and Bryant (Amanda) Johnson, three sisters; Danette Brown, and Tysheena, and Kynetta Bagwell. Eighteen nieces and nephews, eleven great nieces and nephews, and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends that she loved dearly.

Lovingly Submitted,

The Family
