Era el verdadero ejemplo de una excelente ama de casa. Disfrutaba coser y criar a sus hijos. También era una cocinera maravillosa; si la visitaba, seguramente se iría con el estómago lleno. Por encima de todo, Dios y la familia eran el centro de la vida de Raquel. Sus días más felices los pasaba en oración y disfrutando del tiempo con sus queridos nietos.
