My sympathies to Rachael’s family and friends. So sorry to hear of your loss.
I studied with Rachael in the physiotherapy program at the University of Toronto. I enjoyed Rachael’s intelligence, sense of humour, kindness and her straight-forward approach. I was glad to reconnect with her at the last class reunion, hearing about her achievements as a physio, volunteer and most passionately, as a proud and loving Mom.
My sincere condolences.

My sincere condolences to all of the Quinn and Phinney families. I first met Rachael in high school, as we had several mutual friends, and several of us went on to Dalhousie University together. I remember Rachael for her warm smile, witty sense of humour and dedication to everything she did. We crossed paths when my now-grown children took speed-skating lessons. She was a natural teacher, to say the least. She will be sorely missed by many.

So sad to hear of Rachael's passing. Condolences Pat, from Mary & I, to you and your Family.
I used to coach with Rachael at Speedskating camps and meets around the province in the late 90's & early 2000's. Rachael was both a serious and fun person at these events. This along with her past "real" racing experience and Pyhsio training was important to her being able to relate to the mechanics so necessary for a skater to learn - made her an excellent coach. She brought real life experiences to the skater, something the rest of us volunteer coaches could only pretend to do, haha!
I was fortunate to coach Ben and Nic as part of my group. We did have a good time! I I especially want to extend my deepest thoughts and condolence to both of you.
Take care,
Gary & Mary

The universe has lost one of its finest humans this past week. It is with great sorrow that I say good bye to Rachael and offer my sincerest condolences to Pat, Benjamin, Nicholas, Caroline and Christian. She was a rock in my life for almost 40 years. We celebrated and grieved together many of life’s events. Rachael represented everything that is great in the world , love, friendship, loyalty, family, dedication, perseverance, hard work and unfortunately resilience. She was an incredibly positive human and always had an encouraging word to say. I had the privilege of meeting Rachael at University of Toronto back in the 1980’s. We shared a house with Sue on Brunswick avenue. This lead to a lifelong friendship. I have fond memories of our camping and ski trips together.
She loved her family very much and the universe is truly a better place with the legacy she leaves. She uplifted and supported so many of us
on her journey, my life is enriched for having known you.
Know you are loved dear Rachael and will be missed, but the life lessons you imparted to me and the memories we created, I will keep close❤️
Good bye dear friend

This is a difficult note to write. It is way too early to say goodbye to Rachael.
I have such fond memories of our friendship. She was honest and straightforward- with a cam demeanor. She could always make me laugh; especially with her Maritime expletives like ‘Gods teeth’. My family still laughs when I borrow it.
We were roommates at U of Toronto, in the Physiotherapy Department. She and Jane welcomed me into their home; both being two years my senior. We spent their last year developing a lasting friendship.
Over the years we kept each other informed about ours and our children’s lives. She and Pat must be so very proud of their parenting; with happy and successful children.
My love goes out to all the family.
Breast cancer has touched so many lives. May we one day find a cure.

Sending my deepest sympathy to Pat, Ben, Nick, Caroline and Christian. My heart breaks for all of you. Rachael's strength, fight and bravery was all from her totally committed love and devotion to her family. Her greatest achievement was in raising 4 amazing children who have all turned out to be very impressive adults. I am also honoured to say that Rachael was also a loving God Mother to our daughter Laura. I have too many wonderful memories to share. I will miss our walks, our talks and our trips together.
Love to you always Rachael!
Until we meet again!
