So sorry for your loss. I knew Becky throughout our years at FAW and SMA. She was a very sweet person. I will keep the family in my thoughts and prayers.
I was blessed to know Becky, a friend to everyone. No drama, no pretense – she was genuinely kind and caring. So glad she had time in the quiet of Chaptico following those arduous years at Pax (and trying to turn left out of Woodland Acres). Surely Becky’s heavenly reward is great.
Kevin, Ryan, Erin, Mrs. Davis and family. We are sorry for your loss. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Hold all of her precious memories close to your heart.
