My many thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Becky was always the same with that wonderful smile. No matter how much time had went by when we saw one another it was always like we had saw each other the day before. Nothing but good thoughts &  laughter when I think of her. She is and will be missed.  God must of needed a special Angel up there.   

Becky was a part of Jerry's Interlude Saturday Golf group and I only got to play in a foursome with her a couple of times. However, the other golfers who played with her many times and formed a relationship with her spoke so highly of her that I wished I had known her better. Being at her memorial reception today at Arden Hills my eyes grew wet many times listening to the tributes paid to her by her friends and relatives. Again, I wish I had met her earlier and known her better. Mike and Mary, you brought a light into the world that will shine forever. 

Dear Mary and Mike,
I was so sad to hear of Becky’s passing. My heart goes out to both of you. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I have so many great memories of Becky. 
We met at Theodore Judah Elementary School. She was my first best friend and gave me the nickname Toady. 
We lived a street away from each other and spent many a day running back and forth between her house and my house. 
I especially loved playing at her house because she had horses and a playhouse. We’d ride bikes to the school and then back to her house to eat Hostess Ho Hos. We listened to records, hung out in the basement, and we jumped on the pogo stick in her driveway while singing Joy to the World by Three Dog Night; we were sure it made us jump forever. 
When she moved out of the neighborhood we couldn’t see each other as much so we became pen pals. I still have some of those letters that she wrote. I will cherish them as I cherish the memories that I have of my dear oldest friend, Becky.

It's just crushing.  My sympathies and love to Mr. and Mrs. McReynolds and their family and to us all for having such a bright light that Becky was , and is, burned out too soon.  

I met Becky when she joined us in the 5th grade at Sacred Heart School and became fast friends.  No surprise, she immediately became the teacher's pet.   Becky and I were making some sort of project and she accidentally dropped dry ice down the classroom sink.  She yelled, "What's happening?!"  The great take away is Becky got us a "snow day" and I wasn't blamed and we had a few days off for the school to fix the pipes she blew up!

Growing up with Becky and Mr. and Mrs. McReynolds and her Grandma was really neat.  In reference to another post, Becky was just as goofy as her Dad which is probably why we clicked.  Through the years and life journeys, meeting after Christmas Eve Mid-night Mass at SH was an occasion I always looked forward to.   And the Alcatraz stories and her Grandma's beautiful blue crushed velvet wedding dress and dinners at their home in East Sac. and West Sac.  

Becky and I didn't run in the same circles after high school but she was a person that you could pick up with where you left off.  She always genuinely cared about me and my life and my family.   And our love of animals.

Lucky for all who knew her that we were fortunate enough to have/had her in our lives.   

Mr. and Mrs. McReynolds, let me know if you need a couple of extra hands or photos or if I can be of help.  

Huh.  This sucks.  

Much love.



I was so shocked and heartbroken to hear of Becky's passing.  I have such wonderful memories from high school with Becky. She and I took calligraphy together and one of us would get our seat moved almost daily because we would laugh so much! I also want her parents to know that even after all these years, I vividly remember Becky talking about how great and fun her parents were. I still have the photo of Becky and her dad from the father daughter dance.  I commented that it looked like they had a great time. She told me that her dad was "a big ol goof".
Will be praying for her family.  Rest in peace Becky. 

I am so sad to hear this news.  Becky was a very good friend in college at Sac State and my little sister in our sorority  Alpha Chi Omega.  We spent endless hours being silly, making crafts and listening to music and dancing ....  so, so sad.

I am so sorry for your loss.

I met Becky when I ran track for Loretto.  She was so sweet even though I was from the other "girls" high school. We became friends through my husband 11 years ago when Kevin and I moved back.  Loved being around you and your positive funny self. I am saddened to hear of  your passing. We will definitely be toasting  you this weekend. Forever in our hearts. 

Mike and Mary our hearts are full of love for you.  I will always remember the day I met my little friend Becky.  I gave her my pink carnations my grandmother brought over because I had a miscarriage and Becky brought me you two. You are both such beautiful people. We are so sorry. The Chargin family grieves with you.  If you need anything, please call. Always, Cheryl 

I am truely saddened to hear this news and am sorry for your loss.  Becky was wonderful to work with and I enjoyed seeing her at our meetings.  She will be missed.  Prayers to all her family.  

I was very sad to hear about Becky.  We've known each other for 20+ years.  Working in the medical field, we would run into each other a lot and she always had a big beautiful smile on her face.  We both had a love for dogs,  and had a great time at 20-30 events.   My thoughts go to her family and close friends.

High school was great with becky! She always had a smile and energy that was contagious. Even though we never hung out after school we always kept in touch with facebook so it was like we hung out. I cant believe your gone but you will never be forgotten!! Love u girl!

I have not seen Becky in over 30 years.  My memory of her is as vivid, however, as those years in high school, even though Becky my senior.  The photos recently shared of her could have been taken of her at age 18; her smile and energy had not changed.  

Her family is certainly proud knowing the people with whom Becky shared her life and hearts she touched. 

Always the brightest smile and most radiant aura in the room.  Thank you for embracing me since our youth and loving and adopting Ronna (Little Wayne) into your heart. We had some great times! Rest In Peace, my friend. 

Becky’s lovely spirit shined through her smile.  Over the last 40 years, I have nothing but good memories of her! My thoughts and prayers go out to Mike, Mary and ALL of her extended family and friends. She was a bright light in a sometimes dark world and will be missed. 

Becky’s memorable smile  was in her lips as much her beautiful eyes, but more importantly, touched hearts!! It was brilliant and contagious and symbolic of  the amazing person she was!!  She is loved, will be missed, but never forgotten .  Her legacy will be payed forward!!
