My sister, Rebecca, was my first best friend. Only fourteen months older, she and I grew up side by side - sharing our childhood, our families, our children, and eventually our grandchildren.
It's hard to put into words what she meant to me. She was my lifelong confidante, my sounding board, my secret-keeper, and my constant. Our long, almost daily phone calls, I miss terribly - the stories we shared, her voice, her laugh, and the way she understood some things in our lives like no one else on earth could. There was always laughter, always love and always a feeling we had each other's backs.
We loved and shared each other's children. "Aunt Becky" had a special bond with my three children. She celebrated their milestones, cheered them on, and loved them as her own. Her presence in their lives was a gift, and her love will always stay with us. RIP beautiful big sis. I miss you so much.

My heartfelt condolences to the family. Fond memories of a dinner at my home with Becky and a person who worked for her Dad in Orange. Many people have borrowed the book she wrote. Last time I saw her was at an estate sale. Lovely as ever . She was a joy and will be missed. May the Lord
give you peace and comfort .

I learned so much from Becky when she was my director at CS City Hall. I miss her terribly! I am so very grateful to have had her friendship and most especially for the nearly three hour conversation we had the Friday night before she passed. I loved these phone visits when we couldn´t get together.
Becky was so completely selfless, overly generous, and chose the sweetest most thoughtful gifts ever. I always thought I would be a step ahead of her at least once. She never visited me without bringing something hilariously funny or so very thoughtful. This year, Becky´s Christmas present is in my closet. So much for being a step ahead. She was, is, an Angel.
