Rachael Rava McFillin Obituary
With solemn reverence, we commemorate Rachael Rava McFillin of Upper Darby, Pennsylvania, whose life came to an end on May 8, 2025 at the age of 56, leaving behind cherished memories. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Rachael Rava McFillin to show support.
In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Rachael Rava had on those she encountered along her journey. Though Rachael Rava may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, her essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.
She is survived by: her parents, Diana Rava (Wyandt) and Joseph Rava; her brother Joe Rava (Linda); her children, Anna and Daniel; and her brothers-in-law, David C. McFillin Jr. (Linda), F. Burke McFillin (Kim) and Andrew T. McFillin (Katie). She is also survived by nieces and nephews.
Visitation will be held on Wednesday, May 14th 2025 from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM and on Thursday, May 15th 2025 from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM. A Mass will be held on Thursday, May 15th 2025 from 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM at the Immaculate Heart of Mary Church (819 Cathedral Rd, Philadelphia, PA 19128).
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the Pink Hat Project, an internal charity of Penn Medicine that knits hats for women with breast cancer as their hair grows back after chemotherapy. As the Pink Hat Project prepares to expand this initiative, checks can be made out to Chris McFillin to support its growth.
