Rachel was a beloved and dedicated labor and delivery nurse for more than 20 years in both Georgia and Wisconsin. Upon receiving her master’s degree in nursing, she became a nursing instructor at the Bryant and Stratton College of Nursing and then director of admissions at Milwaukee Career College until she became disabled from MS.
She is survived by her loving husband, Bernie Beemster of East Troy; as well as her daughters, Kimberly Mulvihill and Angela Mohr.
Rachel was known as “Granny” to her three beloved grandsons, Michael, Joey and Riley. She was loved by her siblings, family, students, colleagues, caregivers and many friends.
