I spent a lot of time with Becky learning to crochet. She was a patient teacher. Most of time together was spent talking. My husband marveled at how long we could talk. It was never a problem. Becky and I had a lot in common, and shared similar views on most subjects. She was kind and quick to laugh, just a joy to spend time with. I miss you a lot, Becky.

Becky was a wonderful, sister in-law and friend. When we found out she passed Dennis and I got out the photos of our Canada trips and reminisced. She always had some kind of new gadget to show me and was always teaching me an easier way to do things. We didn´t talk or text often but I´ll cherish the times we did. We will miss her.

Becky was a kind person and a good friend. She taught me how to crochet, and spent many hours helping me with my projects. Actually most of the time was spent talking. I so enjoyed her company, and I miss her. Her passing will be so sad for all who knew and loved her.
