My sympathy to the family. My fondest memories with cousin Becky was on the CB radio in the day when we all knew her as "BUTTERFLY". The handle fit her prefect because she was a beautiful butterfly with her personality and big smile. She loved to talk and would have a roll call to see who was on the air. Fun times! I know she is now having her roll call in heaven and annoucing her arrival home. R.I.P. my cuzz!

Mark, I loved Miss Becky and Mr. David as if they were my own parents. I have many fond memories growing up across the street from you guys. I always thought it was so cool that your momma and I had the same name. I remember our families going to Myrtle Beach together one year for summer vacation and I just thought you and David were "it" because you two could jump off the high dive. I have many wonderful memories of your parents. But then, they were wonderful people, indeed. May YOUR fond memories comfort you in this time.
