Becky Smart Obituary

Becky was born February 23, 1993 to Stan and Sheryl Smart in Murray, Utah. She graduated from Brighton High School in 2011. She recently graduated from Snow College with her Associate's Degree. She was currently working for our family business, Turf Sprinkler Company.
Becky loved: her family, her friends, her cat Moe, basketball, Johnny Depp, the outdoors, Lake Powell, quoting movies and especially loved her fiancé Cody. She was looking forward to spending her life together with him. Becky had such a fun personality, an infectious laugh, and a smile that would light up the room. We love you Becky!

Can she really have left us 10 years ago. I remember her bright engaging personality whenever I was around her. She was so competitive that she scared girls who had to play against her :). She was such a bright life of joy which I'm sure she continues to be in Heaven.

My dear sweet darling Becky, I don't even have the words to say how or what I still feel. I think I'm still in shock, in a fog and in the denial stage all at once. But I would like to say that Becky I do love you and I am missing you every day for the rest of my life. I wish I knew how or why this happened but I don't have any answers right now. I hope I can find some kind of peace soon through the Lord Jesus Christ. Really can't wait to see you and dad again. Love from your second favorite sister.

You were one of those I never quite knew, but always wanted to know. I'm sure there are many others like me with no doubt you were someone we would all be blessed to have known. Rest in Peace.

I was a patient of Brent Rasmussen's where Becky worked. She was always so helpful and supportive, encouraging and always happy. I am profoundly sorry for your loss. I am the mother of 7, and can only imagine the sorrow. Know that she was loved, even by those who knew her only casually.

There are people that you meet that touch your life in profound ways. Becky was one of those people in my life. She was in my class when she was a sixth grader and brought friendship and joy to all who had the pleasure to know her. I have thought of your family many times as I have driven past your home on my way to and from Granite over the past years and thought of what a great family lives there. Love to you all and especially Dane and Sheryl.

I was so sad to hear of the passing of my childhood friend, Becky. She was a true friend. Although we lost contact over the years, I am grateful for the wonderful times we had together. She was a true friend. One of the things I loved about Becky was her loving and caring spirit. I know that when Becky crossed over, she got the biggest hug from her Dad. I send all my love and support to Becky's family and Cody at this trying time. May you find peace.
