My name is Denise McKinley.

On January 1st, 2017 my beautiful and loving sister-in-law, Rachel, passed away. For years, she suffered from EDS (Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome), which is a disease that affects the connective tissues that provide support for the skin, tendons, ligaments, internal organs and bones within the body. Despite any difficulties, she has done her very best to stay strong and care for her two amazing children. 

Rachel was a very talented woman and had many dreams for her little boy, Rordan (10), and baby girl, Stella (2). Always with a book in her hand, education was a top priority for Rachel. I know how important it was for her to make sure that her children received a good education and were able to persue their dreams. 

The love that Rachel had for her children was so strong and she will be missed by everyone that had the pleasure of knowing her. I would love to raise money to help support the family and prepare a college fund for these two incredible children.  Any donation would be appreciated and would go to good use.
