Rachel is survived by her three sons and their families, Wayne, Rose, Keith, Ceny, Eric, Donna, ten grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren. She was predeceased by her husband Carmen, in April 1989, and daughter Doreen, in March 2012. Rachel was very active in Salvation Army Church in Nova Scotia and Winnipeg.

The family would like to give a special thank you to the staff at Golden West Extendicare, and a special mention to Sharon Wynne who was such a loving care giver. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Rachel's name to the Carmen Bond Memorial Fund at The Salvation Army Heritage Park Temple.
