Becky was always more like a sister that I never had than a sister in law. We had many good times together & went thru a lot of bad times but we always knew we could depend on each other to make it thru them. 
She was always good to my children we actually raised ours up together. In between each others homes.  I will truely miss her& thank her for all she did for me & mine
My mama Mary Thomas. & daddy Leland loved her just like she was their own daughter & Becky returned the love to them. Enjoy your new life sweet lady see u soon

My Grandmother was truly, one of a kind.. I can remember all of the trips we took together and how great of a cook she was..I can't remember one time where she wasn't smiling and happy. I used to love going to her house when I was little. She would let me get away with anything..lol.. she was the sweetest, most comforting person to be around and she always gave the best hugs. Even as an adult, I always looked forward to seeing her and seeing my kids being excited to see her..I will love her forever and always 💕 

Becky has been my stepmom and friend since I was 13 and she was 18. I have been trying to think of the best memory I have but we had so many . My dad and Becky and my husband and me would do so much together we had such wonderful times. She would play pranks on me , I would tell her ‘you are so crazy  and she would yell crazy bout you , can’t say how many times she embarrassed me with that one  . I am going to miss that .She always doted over my children  and grandchildren they knew she loved them they all had a little special thing I was so grateful for that . I was thankful for many things she’s done for me .I love her and I will miss her so much.

Whenever I think of Nanny, I always think about the times when I was growing up and I would spend the night at her and papa’s house. It was so comforting and I always had fun. She taught me things, took me places, and always made me feel like I was the most important person. I think of all the mornings, before she passed,  when I would drop Theo off. She would come to the door and Theo would stretch his arms out for her and before she even could grab him, Theo was telling me bye. Nanny was an amazing grandmother and great grandmother. Our family will never be the same, there’s a hole where my grandma should be. I know she’s in a better place, but it still hurts not being able to talk to her and have someone listen to me and give advice. She will forever be a blessing to my wife, son, and I. I’m so glad that Theo got the chance to be around her. Nanny, I love you more than you could ever know. You were the strongest woman I ever knew. Thank you for being a blessing to so many people, including me.  

Nanny was an amazing soul, her presence in my life the last 8 years will never be forgotten. I remember the day we brought Theo home from the hospital, she was the only one home and was waiting on the front porch for us. We pulled in the drive way and she hopped in the car because so was so excited. I will never forget the smile on her face when she held him, it was like a missing piece of her heart finally fell into place. She will be his favorite person forever and we will miss her everyday but I know she will look after Theo and keep him safe always. We love you  so much Nanny. 

Becky was a very  dear friend of mine . I'm going to miss going out to eat and shopping with you. And getting our   Pedicures even though we have not been able to get them for a while. I am sure going to miss you. Tell everyone in heaven I said hello I love ❤  you.  Sandy  

I could talk for days about all of the memories that God gave me with her.  I know when He put her in my life it was a special blessing.
I really never considered her my mother-n-law, I considered her my friend and second mom.  She loved God, her family, grand children and great grandson dearly and it showed so much.  I thank God for her always being there for my children and Sherry especially at times when I couldn't be.  Also I'm so glad that God gave her the opportunity and time to be her great grandson Theo too that she helped take care of. 
I'll always cherish the memories of being able to talk about the Lord with her.  There would be times when we would sit on the porch and while she was watering her flowers and plants that we would talk about how Awesome our Lord is and all of the blessings that He had given us.  We also talked about when this day would come too, when He would call us home to be with Him.        She loved the Lord with all of her heart and I know there will be that special day when our family will be able to be with her again.  I'll miss her so much but I will always remember she's now in the Hands of our Lord Jesus.

The first time I meet Becky was when Sherry was pregnant with Robby but she acted like she had known me before then. Anytime I saw her you could tell how much her family meant to her. Sherry you and your whole family have my deepest sympathy, my thoughts and prayers are with you. I love you like a sister Sherry let your family and god along with me help you deal with your loss

Nanny was one of the biggest influences in my life, she would always make sure that i was on the right path. She was hard on me through school and i look back and think about how much she sacrificed to make sure i became successful in life. Nanny would always tell me i was her favorite even though we all knew we were all her favorite and told us all the same. Nanny made it a purpose to take Robby, Adam and i on little vacations once a year after we saved up all our change, those were the best memories and I’ll never forget. I know my nanny is with the lord now and with “her Bobby” she’s smiling and she’s finally home and i know she’ll be watching over me like she always has, she has always been and angel in my books.  

Rebecca was my great grandmother. She was the sweetest soul ever. When I was a little kid learning to write and spell, she was my pin pal. We used to mail letters back and forth. It was a small gesture but, how that left an imprint that I’ll never ever forget. I’d be so excited to open up the mailbox at my grandmothers to see if I got mail. I don’t know if I ever told her how special that was to me or if she even remembered it being, it was so long ago.  I hate that she had to go so soon but, she definitely lived a life where she loved and was loved dearly by all of her family and friends. Rip grandma-ma. Love you. 

When me and my brother were children, my father was in the hospital for quite a while due to medical issues.  My mother worked and saved up enough money to get us into a movie theatre for the first time in our little lives to watch a very popular childhood movie "Puff the Magic Dragon".   We had no transportation at the time so we walked, I remember her telling us to hold her hand tight and not to let go just in case a driver come to close to the sidewalk.  Our hearts were beating so fast, excitement for the movie and fear to not let go of her hand.  Once in the Theatre, the screen was huge and the movie was truly magical to us.    She made a way for us to enjoy an outing.  No car, 2 small children, husband with medical issues but yet she wanted us to enjoy something so it would to take out minds off it all.  I love my mama and will miss her every minute of everyday.  Honest, Hard worker and a Beautiful soul!!
