  3. Aunt Becky was one tough cookie but she had a soft spot for babies and she loved her family. She had such a special bond with my mom, Sandy and an even better relationship with my sister Shannon. Shannon was the daughter she never had and she loved Shannon’s kids as her own. She lit up talking about them and she had an amazing green thumb. She had a beautiful garden. She loved to be included and always let you know just how she was feeling. I was fortunate enough to have a phone conversation with her not to long ago and she was optimistic about the future and at peace about her after life. She will be missed!

  4. I met Becky back in the 80’s in California. She would come over and visit her sister Sandy who is a very good friend of mine. I remember she could make you laugh one minute and yet be very feisty the next! Becky, I’m glad I got to know you. You will be missed by all. Prayers going out to her family and friends.
    🕊❤️🌷
