It has been many years since Becky and I worked on a CHRP retreat at Gesu. Her granddaughter even babysat my son Isaac so that i could attend weekly get-togethers. I had planned on attending memorial mass, unfortunately I have to attend another funeral. God bless her family during this time of loss. i pray for all of you.

I worked with Becky at Promedica. One of my fondest memory was when Becky, myself, and another coworker went roller blading on the UT trail. Poor Becky was wiped out and couldn´t make it back to our car. We each grabbed Becky´s hand and pulled her back. I used to tease her and called her 1.5. (For 1.5 miles). Rest peacefully sweet lady. My deepest condolences to the family.
