Rachel M. (Allen) Camp went to be with her Lord on January 18, 2020. Her large family and many friends will miss her dearly. Rachel is survived by her husband, David Benjamin Camp; three children, Benjamin (Linda) Camp, Alexis (Micheal) Asher, and Aaron Camp; and most dear to her heart, her “little man” grandson, Clarence David Asher.
Rachel came from a large family of sisters and brothers. Rene’ (Wayne) Barth, Lynne Allen, Mary (Gary) Greene, Daniel (Karen) Allen, Martin (Rebecca) Allen, Laura (Kim) Morehouse, Nancy (Bill) Roelfsema, John (Kirsten - recently deceased) Allen, Samantha Allen, and 17 nieces and nephews.
Rachel grew up in the Stockbridge School District. Her love was music and band while in school. She managed both McDonald’s and Culver’s restaurants throughout her adult life, but her true vocation was “farming” (as she called it) at Tulip Tree Gardens, which she co-owned with her sister, Laura. She especially loved working with perennials, shrubs, and vegetables (her favorite was HOT peppers!). Rachel was a master at planting tiny seedlings, but delighted in bragging about the finished flowers and arrangements. In the last couple of years, Rachel lived to spend time with the love of her life, her grandson, Clarence, who brought her intense joy. A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, January 25, 11:00 a.m., at Southwest Church of the Nazarene, 14555 Holmes Rd., Gregory, MI 48137. Visitation is at 10 a.m. until the time of service. Donations can be made to the American Cancer Society or Radiant Church - Jackson.
