I keep a picture of Becky and I in the pocket of my Kindle. It gives me pause when I look at it...remembering my friend from 3rd grade on. I so loved her for her strength in always being true to herself....a quality not often seen in teens and young adults. She'll always be close to my heart.

Every time I read Becky's obituary it still seems so unreal. Scanning the comments from old classmates in Snyder takes me back to so many memories. Janet Lay's comment about her "coolness" being a reflection of the fact that Becky was comfortable with who she was rang so true. I'll be at her memorial service....just need that closure for myself. So strange going to Austin and not getting to see Becky.

I didn't know Becky, but read her moving obituary in yesterday's Statesman. She sounded like an amazing gal -- someone you "wished you known." I, too, am a backyard bird enthusiast and was brought to tears when I read about her love of the Carolina Wren. Yesterday afternoon, as I passed our front window, I caught a glimpse of something flying close to the porch. When I stopped to look, there was a Carolina Wren -- beak full of "stuff" -- flying into an old recycled metal birdhouse (and has always gone unoccupied) that hangs near our front door. As you asked in her obituary, I thought of Becky, and I hope soon we will have a new family of wrens nearby paying tribute to her memory. My positive thoughts are with those who knew and loved her. Thank you for sharing her story in the paper.

We're so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed seeing Becky and Joe walking their dog Sunny in the neighborhood. I didn't know her very long, but I know she touched many lives. God bless you all.

Penny, Tim and Joe my thoughts and prayers go out to your family. Becky was a compassionate, caring person. Always loved going to your house on 35th street playing, etc. Becky was everyone's sweetheart. She was a truly genuine individual and will never be forgotten.

What a wonderful person, she always treated everyone as a equal. I remember her from high school, certainly a class act.

My condolences to you. I went to high school with Becky and spent many hours at her home. She had a special" coolness" , maybe it was being comfortable with who she was. We all wanted to be like her. I'm very saddened by her passing. Joe, Penny, Tim, Caroline, you will all be in my prayers.

My most sincere and heartfelt sympathies go to the entire family but especially to Tim and Penny during this difficult time. It certainly sounds like she lived her life to the fullest and gave you both a wonderful role model to follow. We get to see lots of beautiful birds here in Colorado everyday. I think I will definitely look at them differently after reading about Becky.
