Rebecca Lolgene "Becky" Yeater, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully on August 11, 2025.

Becky was the heart of her family, a woman whose love knew no bounds, and whose creative spirit left a lasting mark on everyone lucky enough to know her. She shared a one-of-a-kind love with her husband, Joseph, who stood by her side with unwavering devotion.

She was the proud mother of the late Susan and to Janie, and a deeply cherished grandmother to Shelby, Eric, and Veronica. Her greatest joy, though, came in being a Great-Grandma to her adored great-grandchildren, Joseph "James" (after her husband) and Rebecca Jane (her namesake).

Becky's love for her family was unmatched, though her affection for animals came in at a close second. She had a sweet tooth and a soft spot for chocolate, her biggest weakness being maple fudge… and just about any treat she could sneak with a smile. She was endlessly creative, pouring her heart into scrapbooks, hand-stitched quilts, and intricate dollhouse rooms and furniture. She leaves behind not just memories… but pieces of herself in every project she completed and every heart she touched.

Her legacy lives on in the love she gave, the joy she created, and the family she leaves behind who will carry her with them, always.
