Rachel Ann Trisler, 52, of Coffeyville, Kansas died Wednesday, April 8, 2026. She was born February 7, 1974, in Laverne, Oklahoma.  Her family moved to Olathe, Kansas, where they lived for several years before eventually moving to Coffeyville in 1989.  She graduated from Field Kindley High School in 1992.  Rachel worked for Westside Daycare Center during this time.  In 1993, she began working for Coffeyville Taco Mayo, where she worked until her death.  This job allowed her to pursue what she truly loved--helping people learn about God.  She was baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses in 1988, and beginning March 1, 1992, she began her full-time ministry.  She volunteered many hours each month to teaching those in the community about God's promises for the future.

 

Rachel is survived by her mother, Kathleen Trisler, and sisters Chris Stacey and Gretchen (David) Sandoval, all of Coffeyville.  She is also survived by two brothers, Nathan (Mileivi) Trisler, of Carmichael, California and Joshua (Celia) Trisler of Bellevue, Nebraska. She held a special place in her heart for her nieces and nephews--Sydney Brinker, Jonah, Noah and Jayelle Trisler, Emma and David Sandoval as well as great niece Katy Brinker.  She was preceded in death by her father, Dennis Trisler, and brother-in-law, Tom Stacey.

 

Following Rachel’s wishes, cremation has taken place under the direction of David W. Barnes Funeral Home in Coffeyville.
