COLUMBUS
Ms. Timbrook worked as a bus driver for the city of Columbus for 36 years before her retirement. She loved to laugh and was known as a “prankster”. Rachel will be remembered as a devoted mother and grandmother. Bird watching, baking and gardening were some of the things Rachel enjoyed doing in her spare time. However, playing cards was her favorite, especially 500 and Rook. She will be deeply missed by those who knew and loved her.
