Honoring the Life of Rachel Tussey

Rachel was a vibrant mother, devoted wife, and a true servant to her community. She was the kind of person who showed up for others without hesitation- always ready to help, lend a hand, or bring hope to those who needed it most.

On Wednesday, February 25th, Rachel underwent a surgery that tragically resulted in an unfortunate situation of medical neglect. Following the procedure, she suffered severe brain damage after extended loss of oxygen and was placed on a ventilator under sedation.

Rachel fought bravely with her family by her side, but the extent of the damage left her with very minimal brain activity. On March 5th, her husband Jeremy faced the unimaginable and heartbreaking decision to remove her from life support.

Rachel was truly full of life. She loved adventure, cherished her family deeply, and lived as an example of what community and compassion should look like. She dedicated countless hours helping others, including organizing donation efforts in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, collecting supplies and personally delivering essential items to those in need. When someone needed help, Rachel was always the first person to step forward.

Now, it is our turn to step forward for her.

Rachel leaves behind her loving husband, Jeremy, and their three children, Tristan, Alec, and Livi. As her family navigates this devastating loss, they are also facing significant unexpected expenses during an already overwhelming time of grief.

If you are willing and able, please consider donating to help ease some of the financial burden on Rachel's family. Any support, whether through donations or sharing this page, will mean more than words can express.

Rachel spent her life lifting up others and strengthening the communities around her.

Let's come together now to honor her legacy by supporting the family she loved so deeply.
