A. very special lady. She will be missed.
Love and prayers for all. What a beautiful legacy of love she leaves for us to enjoy. May she rest eternally with our Father and may all who loved her feel peace.
There’s no words that express my sadness… Becky was my “work best friend “ and a treasured travel buddy! Above all else, Becky crazy loved her kids and grandkids! She adored her accomplished daughters and always was so excited to book a quick flight to Midline to see John and his beautiful family back a few years ago. RIP precious friend… I will always love you!
I already miss my dear friend! I feel so blessed to have seen her a few weeks ago. She still had her great humor and sweet giggle as we shared old stories of fun times together. I will always treasure the friendship we had. We really grew up together as we navigated nursing school together. I will always love that she stood as a bridesmaid at my wedding and supported me and laughed with me and encouraged me through life ups and downs. I love her and I love my memories with her and I look forward to sharing space with her in Heaven. Sending love to all of her family.
A beautiful lady to whom I will always be grateful for the help & support she provided me during a time of darkness, desperation & special need. RIP Nurse Becky
