God bless you Becki. We played softball together. You were a fun person and I appreciated your great humor. I am sorry for your loss Tim.

I was Becki's teacher at Adams High School. Her mother came to me and asked if I would have her in my class. She said she heard I would take good care of her. Becki and I worked together many hours to help her improve. She was always a delight and always wanted to learn more. I know how much you all will miss her. She was a wonderful and warm young girl. I was happy to read that she had a good job and , I know, she contributed to her community.
