Rachael Colleen Johnson, a beacon of love and creativity, passed away peacefully on September 6, 2025, in Greenville, South Carolina, at the age of 37. Born on November 20, 1987, in Boca Raton, Florida, Rachael's infectious laughter and boundless compassion have left an indelible mark on the hearts of all who knew her.

Rachael's early years in Boca Raton were filled with the warmth of the Florida sun and the loving embrace of her family. She was the cherished daughter of Barry Johnson(Terry) and Beverly Elizabeth Gandy, and the adored sister of Benjamin Adam Johnson married to Vanessa. Her family circle extended to include her beloved nephew, Cole Johnson, and niece, Vivian Johnson, who were among the many joys of her life. She is also survived by her grandmother Peggy Gandy, her uncle Ted Gandy married to Hallie, and her cousins, Nick Gibson, Garrison Gandy, and Conner Gandy.  Rachael's grandmother, Florence Johnson, and grandfather Donald Gandy predecease her, but their memories continued to be a guiding light in Rachael's life.

A woman of many talents and interests, Rachael's passion for animals was evident to all. She had an innate ability to connect with all creatures great and small, and her gentle nature was a comfort to every life she touched. Her creative spirit found its most profound expression in her love for crafting, with painting being her favorite medium. The world was her canvas, and she painted her love and humor onto the lives of those around her. Her creative spirit wasn't just for paper, she also enjoyed web design. 


Rachael's sense of humor was as vibrant as her artwork. She had a knack for finding the funny in the everyday, and her laughter was a melody that could lift the spirits of a room. Her humor was a gift that she shared generously, never failing to bring a smile to the faces of her family and friends.

In her professional aspirations, Rachael was drawn to the field of nursing. Her fascination with the career was a testament to her desire to care for others and make a tangible difference in the world. She pursued this dream with the same dedication and enthusiasm that she applied to every aspect of her life.

Rachael's life was a testament to the qualities that best described her: loving, funny, and creative. She was a source of strength and inspiration, and her legacy will continue to be felt through the countless lives she touched. Her family, including her father Barry, mother Beverly, brother Benjamin, sister-in-law Vanessa, aunt Dawn Bigham, nephew Cole, and niece Vivian, will hold her memory close as they navigate the world without her physical presence but with the enduring essence of her spirit.

As we bid farewell to Rachael Colleen Johnson, we celebrate the time we were privileged to share with her. Her laughter, love, and artistry have left an indelible impression on our world, and she will be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her. Rachael's life was a beautiful masterpiece, a vivid tapestry woven with joy, kindness, and an unending capacity for love. May she rest in peace, knowing that her legacy will continue to inspire and uplift us all.
