It was a joy to know and work with Becky at the Cosmos Nursing home 38 years ago!! When I would see her around Litchfield she still always had a smile, hello and a hug. RIP Becky.

Cindy Schuth says
I started working with Becky when I was 15 years old, in 1970, and continued to work with her throughout my time in high school and college, about 7 years. I loved working with her, as she was so friendly and patient with everyone! I hadn’t seen her for about 35 years, but I had the opportunity to go to a luncheon at Peace Lutheran in Cosmos a few years ago. I was amazed that she recognized me immediately, and had a wonderful hug for me. She invited me to come see her apartment following the luncheon, and I had a lovely visit with her. I’m so glad that I had the opportunity to do that. She was a special person to all of us who had the chance to work with her, and also to everyone who knew her from the community. Deepest sympathy to all of you in her family, and to those of you who are close friends. She was a gem! Cindy Janke Schuth

I LOVED visiting with Becky and getting my daily hugs. She would follow me into the Emmaus Beauty Shop every a.m. just to visit and tell me where she was going that day. Very inspirational .
Blessed Be Her Memory
