Rafael is survived by her brother, William (Carole) Ciesielczyk, sisters Ruth (Paul – deceased) Townsend, Sharon (Dave) Border, Patricia (Robert, Sr.) Beckett, and a myriad of nieces, nephews, great nieces, and great nephews many of whom have been fortunate enough to enjoy her delicious Polish coffee cake which will be sorely missed by all!.
