I worked with Becky for four years. She was the first person at O'Sullivan to befriend me and I looked forward to our conversations every night. She was the funniest lady I knew and could always make me laugh after a hard day at work. She was a wonderful woman. Your family is in my prayers.

YOU COULD ALWAYS MAKE ME LAUGH ANYTIME

Bobby, LeAnn, Spencer & Michelle: My sincere condolences to all of you on the loss of your loved one. I too, was very shocked but what a wonderful way to go. It's going to be hard because there will be a big void in your lives but with God's strength you will get through it. Time helps heal the broken heart. Just wanted you all to know that I have you in my thoughts and prayers.
