She was born in Big Spring on August 19, 1945 to Henry Russell and Velta Inez Poston Bird.
Becky was known to the people in the area as Becky the Nail Lady, and many in the area were a recipient of some of the beautiful works of art that she created on their nails. Becky was a very spirited woman, full of spunk, with a bubbly happy personality. She was a long standing member of Christian Fellowship Church and had a very strong faith in God. She loved to talk to people, but if you said something that wasn’t right you would see her feisty side because she was strong in her convictions and knew how to stand her ground. She was also a woman with love to spare, not only did she spend time raising her own children, she also took in many cousins, and friends. In her spare time Becky enjoyed going out to visit friends, talking to people on the phone, and painting pictures.
Becky is survived by her sons David Blauvelt and wife Joy of Midland and Doug Blauvelt of Big Spring, by her grandchildren Lecy Hobbs and Laura Chaney, and by several step-children and step-grandchildren, as well as by a brother Bill Bird and wife Ann of San Angelo. She is also survived by many nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends.
She was preceded in death by her husband John DelReal, by her brothers Henry Russell Bird Jr and Donald Butch Bird, and by her sisters Betty Messemer and Joy Thompson.
