Becky will be remembered as a woman whose life was caring for others. She worked as a caregiver for many years, offering comfort, help, and kindness to those who needed her. That same spirit guided the way she lived each day. She loved caring for other people and was known for putting everyone else’s needs before her own.
Her family was at the center of her life. Becky loved spending time with her family, and those moments together were among the greatest joys of her life. She was a loving wife, mother, sister, grandmother, Nanny, and friend, and she shared her love generously with all who knew her.
Becky also found happiness in simple and beautiful pleasures. She enjoyed working in her flower beds, tending them with care, and she also loved fishing. These quiet pastimes reflected her gentle nature and her appreciation for life’s everyday blessings.
Faith was an important and lasting part of Becky’s life. She was a longtime parishioner of Our Lady Queen of Angels Catholic Church and a member of the Ladies Altar Society. Her church community was an important part of her life, and her steady presence and devotion will be remembered with gratitude.
