Louise Harrison Becker

July 11, 1944 - November 08, 2026 (82 years old)

Our Sweet Mama, Louise Faye Harrison Becker, was called to her heavenly home by Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Sunday morning, Nov. 8, 2026. For the last 5 years, she bravely fought against cancer. Thank you to all of the doctors, nurses, and other healthcare providers who were involved with her care. Louise was born on July 11, 1944, to Franklin and Laura (DeMange) Harrison in Edinburg, TX. She grew up in the Lower Rio Grande Valley (South Texas) and was the youngest of 4 children. Her brothers were Harry and Jerry and sister Lucien. Louise graduated from McAllen High School in 1962, graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Education from Sam Houston State University in 1966, and later received a Master's Degree in Education from the University of Texas at El Paso. She met our father, Kenneth Frederick Becker, in El Paso, and they married in June 1967. Three children followed: Linda, Darrell, and Daniel. Our mother was funny, witty, and truly cared about people...(and animals). Along with having various talents, Louise was also involved with many activities. She was a special education teacher, music (piano) teacher, Girl Scout Leader and Boy Scout/Den Leader. She also played the organ and piano for church. After retirement, Louise volunteered at church and several schools as a math tutor. In her final years, Louise spent a majority of her time on Facebook and Facebook Messenger. She said that it was her way of seeing the world and being connected to others. She loved wishing her Facebook Friends and Family "Happy Birthday" and leaving kind comments on their posts. Our mom had many Facebook Friends that she met online. Even though she was not able to meet them in person, she deeply loved each of them. Louise was preceded in death by her parents, Frank and Laura Harrison; her brother and his wife, Harry and Patsy; her brother and his wife, Jerry and Elizabeth; her sister and her husband, Lucian and Bill Boston; nephew-in-law, Charlie Casiano; and nephew-in-law, Cameron Sumner. Louise is survived by her children; Linda, Darrell, and Daniel; cousin Elissa (Rick) and her daughter, Kaitlin (Tim); cousin Bobby; nieces, Mary and her sons; Micheal, Christopher (Tana), and Anthony (Talitha); Cathy, Marilyn (Charles), and Diane; and multiple great nieces and nephews.
