In the first year of her cancer diagnosis a good friend sent her the following quote (which became a favorite and an inspiration): "She is clothe with strength and dignity and she laughs without fear of the future, Proverbs 31:25". Becky asked that her friends/family take a moment and remember a time of shared laughter with her.
In accordance with her wishes, Becky will be cremated and no public service will be held. Any token of remembrance may be made to the American Cancer Society.
