Regina Gertrude Cogan BECHT

RIP Nana. You raised a beautiful and loving family that will miss you dearly. Thank you for letting us share your home with you, we have had some of our best memories there in that house and on the golf course. We shall never forget all of the acts of kindness you bestowed upon us.-Andrew RIP Nana Becht...

You were and have always been right, Nana; "You're all keepers! Each and every one! With seventeen, how could we have left any behind?"

We'll never leave a one behind. Never a one left. Never a one forgotten.

I find comfort in my memories of her:
- "I was just hysterical laughing"
- her waving in the driveway as all the cars back out after a family visit
- "You're sure you don't want seconds?"
- her sitting over a crossword puzzle
- her doing her "Nana Dance" across the living room while we watched MTV
- her gritting her teeth if one of the grandchildren cursed at the table (Laura) or spilled something (Jake).
- her snapping photos with a disposable camera as we played family football in the front yard
- "Oh, I've really cut back on my drinking... I'll just have a Gin and Vodka."

She was a remarkable woman who led a wonderful life. She raised seven wonderful children who, in turn, raised seventeen grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren (and counting). We were lucky to not only know her, but to have her as the core of our family. She was deeply loved and is sorely missed.

Nana. you created such beautiful family. you were the greatest Grandmother i could ever ask for. i speak on behalf of all my uncles and aunts as well as cousins that you will always be in our hearts. Love you Nana and say hello to pop for me

Anne, I haven't seen or talked to you for 40 years, but I think of you often. You and your family have my deepest sympathies and prayers at this difficult time. I hope life has been as joyful as possible.

Becht children--Your Mom was a gracious and loving person. It was my privilage to know her. I'll miss her. My deepest sympathy on your loss.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.
