Becky was totally involved with our Hill Valley group from the beginning . Vacations, softball, golf, so many neighborhood activities, Saint Barnabas church and school., etc. even Bowled together for years. There are many good memories!!! She is at peace in Heaven!! Carol Elias
Becky was a dear friend with a good sense of humor. We met at our Thursday afternoon bowling league in 1974 and enjoyed a lot of fun times together. Our bowling friends grew into a larger group for Girls Night Out and later a Girls Lunch Out. Becky was a big IU fan and I’m a Purdue fan so we had many interesting “conversations” about their games. Rest in peace in Jesus arms, Becky. Thank you for being my friend. Betty Daniels
