Rebecca Liechty Obituary
On January 14, 2017 at 8:24 pm with her family at her side, Rebecca Marie Liechty of Leeds, Alabama passed away. Becky touched many over her life's journey, as a wife to her husband, a mother to her twins, a homemaker, a bookseller, a manager, daycare worker, a teacher, grandmother and friend. She will be remembered for her peaceful spirit, genuine smile, an ever kind heart, love for life, nature, gardening, butterflies, owls, kitty cats, red birds, her smiling eyes and her appreciation for the old ways, methods and antiques.
On Wednesday morning, January 18, 2017, the family will receive friends at 9:00 am preceding a Funeral Mass held at St. Theresa of the Child of Jesus Catholic Church (1394 Ashville Rd SE) at 11:00 am, Father Gray Bean officiating. Becky will be transported back home to Winchester, Tennessee for a second visitation to be held on January 20, 2017 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm at Watson-North Funeral Home chapel (405 Sharp Springs Rd). The Rosary will be recited with Deacon Phillip Johnson of the Good Shepherd Catholic Church officiating. Burial will follow at 2:00 pm in the cemetery of First United Church, United Church of Christ (4099 Owl Hollow Road) in Belvidere, Tennessee.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Lewis J. and Ella B. Frassrand, her brothers Jerome Thomas Frassrand, Donald Lewis Frassrand, and Leo Frassrand, and her sisters Sarah Ann Frassrand, Helen Rose Gattis and Jane Francis Terry. She is survived by her husband James Robert Liechty, her son John Robert Liechty (Candy), her daughter Marie Simone Liechty, her granddaughter Ashley Elizabeth Liechty, her brothers Michael Xavier Frassrand and William David Frassrand (Ruthie) and sister Nancy F.

To all the family--
Becky was truly a special lady who loved her family without question. She was also a loyal friend, one who was generous and non-judgmental. I have a beautiful rose bush in my back yard that Becky started from a clipping from one of her own plants and planted for me; it always makes me
think of her every time I look at it--and that will be even more so now. I am truly sorry for this loss for your family and for all who knew her.
