Rachel Schindelheim

Rachel Schindelheim April 29, 1983 – January 14, 2019 Rachel Kristen Schindelheim, beloved wife, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend passed away peacefully on Monday, January 14, 2019 in south Florida after an extended illness. Rachel was born in Brookfield, Wisconsin, the fourth child of Gerald and Marilyn Foess. Shortly after her birth she moved with her family to Coral Springs, Florida, where she had an active and happy childhood with many friends. She completed her senior year of high school in Utah and then moved to Texas to be near her parents. Here she graduated from cosmetology school and met Apollo Schindelheim. They were married on July 25, 2008 and returned to Florida to make their home. Rachel was a sweet, compassionate person who loved animals and always thought of others before herself. When health issues emerged in recent years, she largely bore them silently, never wanting to disappoint or cause worry to anyone. Even near the end with failing health she did not reveal the full extent of her condition and traveled to Michigan to attend her grandmother’s funeral. Her greatest legacy came in demonstrating love of family and displaying incredible strength in bearing her burdens without complaint. We love Rachel and are grateful for the time she spent with us. Memorial Services will be held Saturday, February 2nd, at 11:00 am, at the LDS Chapel located at 676 Eagleview Drive, Alpine, Utah. Family will receive friends prior to the services from 10:00 to 10:45 am.  Should friends desire, memorial contributions may be made to Best Friends Animal Society (bestfriends.org) or to the charity of your choice. Funeral Directors: Utah Valley Mortuary.
