Rebecca Case, 71, of Knoxville, passed away on April 29, 2025. A celebration of life service will be held on May 5, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. at Pierschbacher Funeral Home in Knoxville. Family will receive guests following the service until 6:00 p.m.
Rebecca was born on September 19, 1953, to William and Lola Clarke in Illinois. Rebecca grew up with four siblings moving around from California to the great state of Iowa.
In October of 1970, Rebecca married her one true love, Lance Case. After Lance got out of the army, they were ready for forever together. Together, they built a life and raised one son, Chris.
Family was a huge priority to Rebecca. As her grand kids would say, "Grandma was always there", she never missed a moment! She was always willing to lend a helping hand and was a great caretaker when her family and friends needed it. Working for the Marion County Care Facility, Rebecca was getting her fill of taking care of those who needed it and was great at it.
Rebecca was very smart and talented in so many ways. At one point in her life, she worked at Camp Dodge for the Iowa National Guard doing secretary, finance and logistic work. In Rebeccas kitchen, she would always make big meals for everyone to eat. No one went without food, especially on Sunday's when roast was on the dinner menu.
Crocheting was something you would catch Rebecca doing in her free time, along with spending time with her grandkids and great grandkids. Rebecca will be missed by her husband of 54 years, Lance Case; son, Chris Case; granddaughters: Leanna (Darr) Hoffman, Lacey (Flora) Case and Chelsy Noble; great grandchildren: Reagan Hoffman, Troy Herndon, Aaden Hoffman, Elijah Walton and Hayden Martinez; sisters, Kathy Bowen-Clarke and Dianne (Rick) Ennis and many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.
She is preceded by her siblings, Linda Clarke and Karen Perky, and her parents. To send flowers to the family of Rebecca, please visit our floral store.
