So very sorry Mrs. Becker had to leave us. Mrs. Becker was the sweetest, kindest person to me for years. I never forgot about her being in my life and bringing love and laughter and many memories. My love thoughts and prayers to her wonderful family.

Christie, Todd and Aubry, I’m very sorry for your loss. Mrs Becker was a special woman, and one of the strongest women I knew. She loved her family and I’m told she was an excellent cook and landscaper. Christie, she loved that you were always there for her with your frequent visits. Aubry, she loved that you were the only granddaughter and she doted on you❤️. Todd, she knew you were always there to help her repair something. She is now in paradise with Mr. Becker. RIP Mrs. Becker❤️
