To the Lowe and Glass family,
I am so sorry to hear of Rebeccah‘s passing. I would not have made it through my first two years of teaching without her. I loved how creative she was with all her lesson plans. She was not only an esteemed colleague, but an amazing friend. I’ll never forget spending time at Little Flower or swimming in the lake in the summer break. She will be missed!
So sorry for your loss.
She was a great teacher and she will always be in my heart, she did a great impact in my life during my high school years, she will be missed.
Beccah and I met while taking history classes and museum studies classes at IUPUI. Her enthusiasm for both subjects had an impact on this world. My heart goes out to her sweet family.
