Rebecca Fithen Obituary

Rebecca Fithen Rebecca Leigh Fithen, age 12, ascended to heaven on May 20, 2019. She was born on February 13, 2007 and was a 6th grade student at Bonham Middle School. Our angel was a beautiful soul with a sweet and kind heart who loved all animals, especially her new German Shepherd puppy, Bella. She loved to take Bella on walks, and give her baths. Rebecca wanted to be a veterinarian when she grew up, so she could love and care for animals. Rebecca loved mermaids and unicorns, and her favorite color was purple. She was also learning to play the cello. She loved the cartoon SpongeBob Squarepants and her favorite line from the show was "that's not my wallet." Rebecca is survived by many loving family members; her mother, Dawn Fithen; Grandparents James and Frieda Lehner; Uncle Jimmy and Aunt Lisa, Uncle Gary and Aunt Stephanie all of Albuquerque, New Mexico, Uncle Mike of Peoria, Illinois; Grandparents Johnny and Lea Fithen, Grandparents Phyllis and Larry Pettit and Grandmother Denice Horowitz, Uncle Royce and Aunt Michelle, and Uncle Ryan, all of Amarillo, Texas. Rebecca had many cousins residing in Amarillo, Albuquerque, Colorado, Tennessee, and California. Memorial Services to celebrate Rebecca's life will be held on Friday, May 31st at 10:00am at Daniels Family Funerals and Cremation 7601 Wyoming Blvd NE Albuquerque. Interment to follow immediately at Gate of Heaven Cemetery at 7999 Wyoming NE in Albuquerque. Family requests any donations in Rebecca's honor and remembrance be made to the Amarillo-Panhandle Humane Society in Amarillo, TX or Animal Humane Society in Albuquerque, NM.

The day I found out she was gone I was heart broken and I was never the same after that. But someone special in my life tought me that she is in a better place now and that she doesnt want to see you crying so think of all of the good memories you had together I know it isnt easy but she wants to see you smiling in the end.

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

I never met you in person but saw you in your mother's heart every time she spoke of you. Your life was way too short but you made us all a little more humble, a little kinder and whole lot more grateful for every beautiful thing God has given us. Many live many more years than you on this earth and never change a soul, you changed hundreds.
