The extended Wingo Families remember the loss of this young Mother from her children and we are diminished for she truly was a Wingo who was the best of us.

Even now I have thought of the loss of Rebecca from this Earth much too soon for she was of our extended Wingo Family and her tragic death diminishes us all.

Please accept my sincere prayers that go out to the surviving family and friends may the God of comfort continue to bless you and yours especially after such a tragic loss. Please accept my deepest sympathies. (2 Cor. 1:2, 3).

May peace eventually come to your family. Rebecca's 5 year old daughter was a friend of our granddaughters at pre-school and their first weeks of kindergarten. She was even at Rebecca's for that daughter's birthday party not too long ago. We can't imagine the pain you are all feeling, but wanted to express our thoughts, prayers, and sympathy. May healing be possible while wonderful memories of Rebecca forever keep her near.

There are people who come into your life and make memories you never forget. She was one of those people. She came into my life in high school, her laugh and her smile are something I will never forget. She was so happy and funny. I always enjoyed spending time with her and joking with her at school. She brought joy into my life when I needed it most and I will always be greatful for her being there for me. We have lost a truly beautiful person. My heart goes out to her family.

Rebecca will always be the "den mother" in my memory. She emanated kindness to all in her path, while still being the strong leader her position demanded of her. I am truly sorry for her families loss, and hope that her precious daughters carry on her bright light of kindness and strength. A soul as kind as hers is certain to have a high seat in heaven.

She will not be forgotten.
