I cannot think of a single time when my mother, Becky and I were together that she wasn't laughing and happy. She brought so much joy into our lives for so many years. I cannot fathom this loss. My heart, my prayers are with you Todd, and with your family.

Becky and I shared many hours and laughter at the JCC gym. I only heard of this tragedy today. I am deeply sorry for your family and will miss her laughter and ability to make everyone feel at ease. Debbie Johnson (Va. Beach)

Becky, I miss seeing you walking Lexi and Louis as I drive in and out of our neighborhood. I miss your contagious laughter, positive attitude, the hours we spent talking about nothing or anything, the silly thing we did like taking the dogs to check out dead snake under the bridge. Thank you for being a friend and a tennis mentor. You will remain in my heart forever. May you rest in peace.

Todd, after reading through the messages, its apparent your mother was a wonderful person and passed many of her traits on to you. I'm not sure anyone can understand your grief. I can only hope you and Mia one day feel the prayers for peace said on your behalf; many are praying for you.

As Beckys part time mail carrier, I will certainly miss all the days I watched her walking the dogs. She was such a happy, energetic, smiling, cheerful person. I couldn't wait to stop and chat as she always lifted my spirits. And even tho she talked about things going on in her life she was still able to laugh through it all. I will certainly miss her presence. My sincere condolences to her family.

I am so sorry to hear about Becky. We met some 10 years ago playing tennis. She was fun to play with and always supportive, both on and off the court. Whenever I ran into her out and about, she would always stop to catch up. She always had time for a friend. I will miss her.

Becky, you were the shining light of the neighborhood. I still drive home expecting to see you walking the dogs with a smile on your face. I am sorry I couldn't do more for you while you were here with us on this earth. You have a special place in heaven and your memory and good deeds will remain in my heart. Your friend always, Leah Bush

Nothing in life could have prepared you for what has happened this past week. Your Mom was such an important person in your life...to lose her is a tragedy. Please remember that there are friends and family that will remember her and pray for her...but will also be there to pray for and support you in this time of sorrow. I hope you are able to find peace and know that you and Mia are in our thoughts and prayers.
With sincere sympathy,

Becky you were always ready for a good chat and a good laugh....and you inspired me when playing tennis with your strategy....if you can't outhit your opponent...then "outthink" them. You were a winner, on and off the court. Love, Jessie

Becky was one of the most amazing, wonderful women I have ever called my dear friend. We met 15 years ago when we were all "plankowner" wives on the USS John C. Stennis. I remember saying then that she was head and shoulders above any CO's wife I'd ever met or written about in my career and there has been no one to match her since. She was caring, engaged and just extraordinary. We remained good friends after the tour and I saw her just recently. Always still smiling, I thought she was on her way to a new chapter in her life; she is someone who was always there for me, for all of us and I will deeply miss her and remember her example for the rest of my life. God bless you, my dear friend. Fair winds and following seas and may God hold you close.

I never met Rebecca, but I knew Bob from Vietnam where he was one of the pilots that I flew with. Though Bob was a friend and former shipmate, it cannot ever change this most unfortunate tragedy. May Rebecca rest in peace and my thoughts and prayers go out to their family. Rick Hodge HA(L)-3 Seawolves 1971-1972.

Grace, mercy, and the peace of God, my Father, to all of the family and friends of this very dear woman. Becky was an awesome tennis player and a wonderful person. I will miss her smile, her positive spirit, and those devastating lob shots!

Becky was a wonderful part of my first navy cruise. She made the other CO's wives look unimpressive. She was at the hospital when I had surgery and always there to lend a hand and an ear. We shared many wonderful and fun times. Driving on the wrong side of the road in England and wearing gloves and a hat to lunch when Bob made Commander. Even though we had not been in contact for years, my memories of those wonderful and happy days will continue. Her passing haunts me and I send my prayers and sympathy to the family she left behind. This saddens my heart. This shouldn't have happened.God bless!

I had the priviledge to know Becky for several years and work closely with her in fundraising efforts for the Stennis families while we were both affiliated with the ship. She was the most down to earth woman I ever met. Her smile and positive attitude were infectious. She reached out to anyone who needed it and touched so many lives in her various roles over time. Becky exemplified what it means to be a good human being. I'll miss her forever.

Becky was a beautiful, kind, and nurturing person and I am blessed to have known her for 14 years. She will be dearly missed and remembered each and EVERY day. Her contagious smile, spirit and sense of humor will live on in the hearts and memories of all who knew her! Thank you Becky, for always being there for me, and for being a wonderful Grandmother to your little "Kidlett" girl! To know her was to love her, and I love you Becky! Love, Tara
