Rebecca or also widely known as “Becca” or “Becky,” was loved by many. She comes from a large family and created lifelong friends through school. She was blessed with three beautiful children early in life who were her pride and joy. She loved her babies so much!
People who really knew Rebecca know her as a kind, smart and loving woman. The last few months of her life were some of her proudest moments. She had a new outlook on life and was always smiling and laughing. She loved her pets (especially Lil Man), gardening and her chickens. Her passing has dramatically affected her loved ones. We will miss her every day for the rest of our lives. The pain of her death is heartbreaking for all of us.
A private viewing will be held for her family and a celebration of life service will be scheduled in the next few days for her friends and family to pay their respects.
