Becky lived in the Morrisonville community since 1980, had a long nursing career, which included being employee of the month on numerous occasions.

Im so shocked .. breaks my heart .. truly an amazing friend .. I still have the blanket she crocheted for me:: I gave her a token when bob passed away and she showed me that she was carrying it everytime I saw her
I’m shocked and so sad..
My heartfelt sympathy for your loss
I am just devastated to read of the passing of Becky. We had been best friends since 3rd grade and had reconnected while working at TMH. I already miss her and wish I could have said goodbye.
I am saddened to learn of Becky’s passing. I met her about a year ago and helped her get her Medicare insurance plan in place. I was just about to phone her to meet with her again when I read the newspaper. I am so sorry for your family’s loss.
Always a pleasure to work with Becky at TMH through the years. My condolences to the family.
