My deepest sympathy to the Babyak family. Becky was in my graduating class at Plainedge High School, and my sister and I played basketball with she and Shelley. I remember her always being a kind person, and always with a smile on her face. The fact that she was an educator, tended to plants, and loved & rescued animals tells me that she remained a kind soul throughout her life. May she rest in peace.

To the Babyak family. I am so sorry for your loss!!! I worked way Becky at DCF Regional and she was not only a co-worker of mine but a friend. Being a pet lover myself, that was not hard to do. I helped her with the cats she "adopted" at the school. She LOVED ALL ANIMALS and always was looking for a way to help them. I had to put down my Great Dane recently. When he first got sick, she was there for me with advice on how to try and get him better every step of the way!!! She knew how much I loved my boy and when the time came to put him down, she was there for me and helped me through it with her kind words and advice on how to cope with my loss. Becket definitely helped to ease my pain!!! Among so many others things, I will never forget that!! There is no doubt that Becky was one of God's special people and she is now in Heaven with family, friends and all her pets. It was an honor and pleasure to know her and be able to call her my friend!!! May God be with you all at this time.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all!!! God Bless you all!!!
