Rachel Graf, owner of Knaus Berry Farm, who police say was attacked by her son two weeks ago, has died.

The business confirmed in an Instagram post that Rachel died after being hit at her home around 1:45pm on Sunday.

“Once again, we want to thank the entire community,” the post said. “You are family! You have been a great support and inspiration. Thank you for your prayers and concern!”

Rachel was taken to Jackson South Medical Center by Miami-Dade Fire Rescue on Feb. 17 after Miami-Dade police were called to a violent domestic dispute at a home in the 15700 block of Southwest 248th Street in Redland.

Officers found an injured husband and wife — Rachel and Herbert Graf — who said their son had beaten them with a blunt object in their home, police said. He fled after the attack but was arrested near the home and later charged.

A longtime family friend told investigators he was on the phone with Herbert and heard Travis say he killed his mother and “demanded money or he was going to kill her too,” according to the arrest report. Police say Travis then went to a neighbor’s house and told the man he killed his mother.

Knaus Berry Farm is a Miami-Dade landmark. Thousands of people make a traditional trek to Homestead Business at the end of each year to buy fresh-baked cinnamon rolls, pies, herbed breads and homemade jams. These products are only available from November to April.

The business will be open Monday and “most of the rest of the week,” as the family prepares to celebrate Rachel’s life.

This report will be updated.
