To the Koskos: I spent hours in the classroom with Rachel at Duquesne. She was salt of the earth and as you note also light of the world. I appreciated her desire to learn, her quickness to smile and laugh, her serious of intent in faith and practice. Our world is better because of her. Deepest sympathies with trust in the power of the resurrection of our Lord.
