Becky was a wonderful and giving friend. She and I both had horses and they were pasture mates together. We would often meet at the barn and hang out with our four legged friends , Becky was just glowing when around her horse and her cats. She had the kindest smile and was genuinely concerned about others. This community has lost a wonderful lady , but how lucky we were to have had her as long as we did. Becky …. you will be missed.
