Rebecca Lulky Obituary
Funeral: 4 p.m. Tuesday at Ahavath Achim Cemetery in Tyler. Rabbi Alan D. Learner will officiate.
Memorials: Her family respectfully requests that no flowers be sent. However, consideration of contributions to a charity of one's choice or to Ahavath Achim Synagogue, Tyler, Texas, in Rebecca Lulky's memory, is suggested.
Born in Little Rock, Ark., on July 14, 1914, Rebecca was the daughter of Mayer and Sarah Lulky. She was a longtime employee of Texas State Optical on the square in Tyler.
Miss Lulky was a lifetime resident of Little Rock, Ark., Tyler, and most recently, Fort Worth.
Miss Lulky was a member of Ahavath Achim Synagogue and its Sisterhood, and she was an active member for many years in Hadassah. Rebecca enjoyed music, gardening and golf. Her sweet smile, delightful sense of humor and loving presence will be sorely missed by those who knew her.
In addition to her parents, Rebecca was preceded in death by her sisters, Fannie Z. Ginsberg and Jenny Haltzman; her brother, Morris Lulky; and her niece, Doris Jean Ginsberg Diamond.
Survivors: Her sister, Sadie Babe Weintraub; her niece, Donna Weintraub Sternberg and her husband, Hans, and Elaine Jekels; her nephews, Steven Ginsberg and his wife, Jeanne, William Lulky and his wife, Monica, and Robert Diamond; as well as many great-nieces and great-nephews and their families in Arkansas, Florida, Louisiana, Missouri, New York and Texas.

Aunt Becky's memory will long be a blessing for all of us. She was nothing but dear and loving to all. Her friendship with Babe was and is a thing of beauty, legendary. She is missed.
Steve, Jeanne - your care for her these last years has been heroic. Thank you.
L'chaim,

Steve: I was saddened to learn of Becky's passing. Who could forget her hairdo and smile?
Even though it has been many years since I've seen her, I still remember her from my days in Tyler.

My mother Viola Cupp worked with Ms Lulky at TSO for over 30 years. She was a dear lady and a wonderful friend to our mother. She was always kind and funny toward us as little girls growing up. We are so sorry for your loss, but know thaat she is in a far greater place now.
