Allen & Julie, I want to share something I remember from the service of Linda (Schramm)Kappler from Pastor Hartfield. Everyone has a mission(job) in life(here on earth) and once that mission(job) is accomplished you have a new mission in heaven. May God Bless You & Your Family.

Brianna has a sweet and caring soul and I say "has" because her soul lives on. When I spoke to Brianna, she had a knowing, a peace and joy about her salvation and I had the privilege to have this conversation with her.
You knew that Brianna was genuine and sincere in her Christianity because of the person she was. She always had a moment or two or three for you. She was generous with her time, her knowledge, talents and her listening. She took the time to truly listen and during this particular time in my life, she listened and gave me comfort in her calm and soothing manner and that's exactly what she did...she was there for me and you.
Brianna continues to be the angel she always was. On that day, her strong faith easily lifted her up and her smile continues to shine and now brightens up the heavens! What an example for all of us here on earth!

Allen and Julie, words cannot express how much we hurt for you and all the Becker Family. You raised a young lady that every Parent would have been proud to have had. You raised Brianna to always have respect for others. You both have so many beautiful memories to cherish, as of those of us that had the pleasure to know her and spent time with Brianna. We will truly miss her. May God grant you all Peace and comfort knowing that so many though so much of Brianna and how much we care for you and your family.

Remembering Brianna Becker
http://www.yaf.org/becker.aspx
Young America's Foundation remembers student activist Brianna Becker who passed away over the weekend. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family during this difficult time.
Brianna was a perfect example of the top-notch student leaders we work with on campuses nationwide. She attended the National Conservative Student Conference in 2008 and was an intern at the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute. She was active at the University of Texas and involved with statewide public policy in Texas. Her activism shared conservative ideas with thousands of students who would not hear them otherwise, and she was not afraid to be bold in her advancement of freedom. She was planning to attend law school.

To Brianna's family and all of her many, many friends, my deepest sympathies for the loss of this wonderful young woman. I was privileged to work with Brianna at the Texas Public Policy Foundation, where she was an intern for us. I will never forget her smile (which was a constant on her beautiful face) and her willingness to help out in any way possible. She will be greatly missed by all, and I look forward to the day when we see that beautiful smile once again.

I did not know Brianna, but I know she touched many lives. She worked with my daughter in Susan Comb's campaign office. She did a lot in her short life here on earth. I know she's in Heaven, and you will see her again. We share in your grief, please know that you are not alone. God Bless you all.

To the entire Becker Family,
I did not know Brianna, but know one of her aunts. From hearing her speak about Brianna, I could feel the tremendous love for her and how much Brianna's loss will affect everyone she ever knew. No one can understand why these things happen, we can only believe that everything happens for a reason and that Brianna is now with god and is at peace. Please know that so many people feel your loss and will be praying for you all. Stay strong and remember all the precious moments you shared with Brianna and keep them close to your hearts.
You will all be in my thoughts and prayers.
September 29, 2009
Brianna was such a wonderful and beautiful young lady, both inside and out. I worked with Brianna at the fitness center when she was a senior in high school and she was such a sweet and caring young person to work with and be around. It is a tragic loss and she will never be forgotten. My prayers and thoughts go out to her family and friends in this hard time.

Words cannot express the sorrow of your loss. Brianna always had a smile and a quick twinkle in her eye for us when we would pass her in the hall at OSL.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Becker,
My name is Jane Frank Thompson and I had the privilege of working with Brianna on the University Lutheran Center Joint Board. She truly exemplified a beautiful Christian with dedication, insight, intelligence and helping others. Her untimely death is such a tragedy but she will live on in the lives of others as an organ donor. That helps fulfill her goal of helping others. May God wrap His arms around you to give you His support and love. We will all join her some day in our eternal home. In Christ, Jane

Allen and Julie, I was deeply saddened by the news of Briana's passing. Words seem to fail to express the grief I feel with you and for you. Briana will be a memory I cherish forever. I feel a bright light has left our world, but is shining brighter still.
I hope that the peace of God will comfort and sustain you.
Christie
September 28, 2009
To the Becker Family: I wanted to take a minute to express my deepest sympathy for your tremendous loss. As I was reading the obituaries I saw your daughters sweet face and my heart breaks for your family. May you find comfort in the promise in God's word at Revelation Chapter 21 verse 4 which says "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." Brianna sounds like a very special young lady who had a bright future ahead of her. It saddens me that her life was cut short. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Brianna and I were the best of friends when I attended school with her at OSL. When I moved before 3rd grade, we lost touch. But had found each other online our Freshman year in college, and talked occassionally. She will always be my first best friend, and a person I will never forget. Everyone that knew her, will miss her, and for those of us lucky enough to be her friend, we will always love her. She made a difference in her short 21 years of life, and she will continue to watch over us. Mr. & Mrs. Becker, I'm sorry to hear about this, and I am constantly keeping you both in my prayers.

I was so shocked and saddened by this news!! I knew Brianna only a couple of months while interning at the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute, but she made an impression on me for her bright personality and unwavering conviction to the principles she believed in. I will never forget her and I wish you all my most heartfelt condolences for your loss. May God's peace be with you all.

I was so sorry to hear about this accident. I remember going to school with Brianna she was always the sweetest thing. I graduated OSl in 1997 so I was a bit older than her.

I'm having a hard time believing that this is even true. Something like this doesn't happen to someone like her. Even in first grade when I met her, she was the sweetest and smartest person I knew. Brianna was her parents pride and joy. I can't even imagine what they must be feeling as parents. She will never be forgotten.
