Rebekah Darlene Powell

Rebekah was born in Brazoria, Texas on the 17th of May 1952. She was a natural creative with a keen eye for interior design and decoration. Rebekah loved to read and was an expressive storyteller herself. She also enjoyed learning new languages and teaching them to her loved ones. She attended University of Columbia in South Carolina and earned a Jurus Doctorate in Law. Those fortunate enough to be within her orbit had the privilege of calling her “Mom” or “Mimi”.

A woman like Rebekah is unable to be defined in just a few words. She loved to sing, dance, travel, learn new things, watch all genres of films and television, the hummingbirds visiting her window, her flowers, believed in faeries, sent angels to those in need, and so many more things. Above all, she loved and cherished her family.

Rebekah leaves behind two beautiful children Daisy DeSimone and Daniel Shults, 5 grandchildren, and 5 (plus another on the way!) great-grandchildren.

Rebekah is preceded in death by her beloved parents Mary and Kenneth Powell.

The Powell family appreciates all of the love, support, and condolences as they navigate Rebekah earning her wings and becoming one of the angels that watched over us all.

“There’s a Rainbow in the Cloud”

As I journey here mid the toils and tears, there’s a rainbow in the cloud; he will safely lead, I must have no fear, there’s a rainbow in the cloud.

There’s a rainbow that is shining, there’s a rainbow in the cloud; when life’s race is run and the victory’s won, there’s a rainbow in the clouds.

After storm and rain, fields of golden grain, there’s a rainbow in the cloud; winter’s cold and pain, summer’s harvest grain, there’s a rainbow in the cloud.

There’s a rainbow that is shining, there’s a rainbow in the cloud; when life’s race is run and the victory’s won, there’s a rainbow in the clouds.

When the storms all pass comes a brighter day; there’s a rainbow in the cloud; in that city fair, there’s a crown to wear; there’s a rainbow in the cloud.

There’s a rainbow that is shining, there’s a rainbow in the cloud; when life’s race is run and the victory’s won, there’s a rainbow in the clouds.
