Rebecca Ohlson Obituary

Rebecca Marie Susan Ohlson Nov. 18, 1982 ~ Nov. 19, 2007 Resident of SF and Brooklyn On this day I want to pay tribute to those who have helped us in this journey of a year without Becky. Her dad, for bringing our children to me that day. To Becca, Ryan, Nord, plus all others you chose to be with you to begin your new journey. She loved you dearly. To James, thank you for your strength, your support in ensuring my little girl was being taken care of. To my son Carl, who endured the unspeakable for his sisters, for me. You are our rock. To my baby Madeline for holding my hand for always being there for us. To Megan, Linda, Margo, the crew at Park Chow, everyone who made the memorial so special. To Sheanine, whose loving expressions for her cousin have been so endearing. And to Jay, who completed Becky, whose unyielding passion enabled the memorials and our endurance. To all Becky's countless friends coast to coast, Thank You. We now have benches in Dolores Park, SF and McCarren Park, Brooklyn in memory of our beloved. We see the signs and we know you are with us still. We miss you incredibly. "Until we meet Again"
