Randy, Brian, Tammy and the rest of the family, I was heartbroken to hear of Becky’s passing. She was a one of a kind lady, and I always enjoyed the time I got to spend with her. Of late most of the time I saw her was in the grocery store but she always spoke and gave me that Becky smile no matter what she had going on. She will be missed.
My condolences to Brian and Randy on your loss. I was fortunate to work in an office near Becky for many years and was inspired by her ability to get things done, whether it was decorating her office door for the holidays, decorating the golf cart at the cabin or the awesome fundraisers and car washes for the LHS Raiders football team. I will miss her very much.
Randy & Brian,
How can we express in words to convey the loss of a wife and mother. Our sincere condolences to you both. We are so blessed that she came into our lives. She was my co-worker, best friend, and a wonderful person. She cared and loved her family. She was a giving person and would do anything for her family and friends. We will truly miss her.
Sending my sincerest condolences to Randy and Brian. Becky was a very sweet, loving, and caring person. I met her years ago when our sons played baseball together and she was kind from day one. I am very saddened to hear about this, my heart goes out to all of her family and loved ones.
Our condolences to Randy and Brian. The both of you were the reason she lived for. She loved you both so very much and her family. Becky was one of a kind. She made everyone around her feel special and loved. Her sense of humor and compassion for others was like no other. In pain she would come into work and give it her all. I had the blessing for a short time to work with Becky and the Lord blessed me with a friendship I will cherish forever. The Lord definitely has an angel up in heaven with him. Her presence will be surely missed. I love you “Scooter”. Randy and Brian know she will be with you always. God Bless you both and your family. Kathy
