Rebecca Jean Bryant Anderson

Rebecca Jean Bryant Anderson left this world for her heavenly home on Monday, July 22, 2024. She was born on August 24, 1955 to E. Wayne Bryant and Barbara Heavener Bryant in South Bend, Indiana. Known to her close friends as "Becky", she grew up mostly in Des Arc. She was a guiding light to those around her, always sharing her love of God with others. Some of her favorite memories were the years she spent in Mexico with her family doing mission work. She married Richard (Ricky) Anderson in 1973 and they began building their lives together. They had three children, which they raised in Brinkley. Family and friends were blessed to hear Becky's beautiful voice for many years when she sang in church, and all who knew her were blessed by her loving and peaceful spirit. Besides "Momma", her other favorite titles were being "Ganny" and "Nanghee" to her grandchildren. They were all the joy of her life. Becky was preceded in death by her parents, her beloved husband, her sister Karen [Dave] Harbor, and her brother David [Angie] Bryant.
She leaves behind her son Patrick [Joni] Anderson of Moro, Heather [Steve] Bline of Russellville, and daughter Carmen [Steven] Johnson of Hazen; her grandchildren Sierra [Chris] Gardner, Autumn Self, Lexi [Naaman] Fryer. Kolbie Anderson, Gabriel Johnson, Faith Johnson, Layna Bline, and Abby Anderson; a great grandson Dean Fryer; her sister Debbie [Doug} Heston; and a host of family and friends.
There will be a visitation at 2 p.m. followed by a celebration of her life at 3 p.m. at Family Christian Fellowship in Hazen on Sunday, July 28. After the services, loved ones will be welcome to join the family at a graveside service at Pleasant Valley Cemetery in Brinkley.
