My mother was an amazing person who leaves a legacy of compassion and love. Money comes and goes but to be truly rich in love is what makes life so wonderful. I will always miss you and wish I could have had more time with you but god has a greater plan for his newest angel.

For us that knew her, we were blessed. Becky was a very special person and yes one of a kind. She had a smile that made you feel good and a laugh that made you smile. She was more than a sister to me. She was my friend and guiding light as a child. She taught me so much over the years. The smile, laughs, tears and kindness I show are a part of her. I will miss her with all my heart. I Love you Sis, your little brother, Chuck.
