My father, Larry Van Gels, has been friends with Ken for over 35 years and I met Jennifer when we were 5 years old and she is my best friend. I met Becky several times with Jennifer and have heard so much about Becky thru her and how much she loved Becky. Jennifer credits Becky for all the good things that have come to her family since Becky came into their lives. She made such a loving difference in Ken, Jennifer, Michael and her daughter Lindsay lives with her kind heart and support and I am truly saddened for the lose that her family and love one are experiencing at this time.

Ken, I was so sorry to learn of your loss. Becky was a wonderful person, she did much (as you did) to help the state with telecommunications issues. It is my hope to attend the memorial service, if at all possible. Deepest sympathy to you and the family.

Becky was my very first boss when I joined Southwestern Bell and I couldn't have gotten luckier. She was always cheerful and helpful in her guidance. A tremendous lady whose enjoyment of life was so evident every day. Ken, Lindsay and family, you have my deepest condolences.
