For as long as I knew her, Becky was always a supportive and caring wife, mother and grandmother and a friend to us all. I will miss waving to her as I go up the hill. God Bless your family during this difficult time.

Dear Mike, Tevin, Debbie and family, I can not express how sad I feel for you during this time. Becky was a wonderful neighbor and I miss her smile, wave and conversation each day. I just spoke with her a few weeks ago and we had a nice conversation and were able to talk about some things that transpired while I was living next door. She was a true freind and wonderful person. She will be missed dearly. Please know that you will get through this and go on, but times will be hard. I am out of town today and tomorrow and will not be able to come to the services. Please know that I am here for you and will help you in any way that I can. My thoughts and prayers are with you today. With loving thoughts, Tina Rose
