I was just thinking of Becky last week. We have not spoken in a few years, however, she was a large part of my history at Olivet. I have a lot of fun memories of her. She cared about the important things in life and for that she will be remembered and missed dearly in my book. Her avid love of animals is what I will remember and respect the most. My thoughts are with her family and husband. I hope the good memories can carry you all through this loss.
Sincerely,
Angel Schwenk (formerly Wakeham)
