Becky....
I don't even know where to start. I am so incredibly sorry to hear that our world has lost such a wonderful and giving woman.

You had been a part of my life for almost 22 years and for a good chunk of that you were like a surrogate mom and confidant to me.

You were there for so much...ever since I was 15! I remember coming by to see Belle and Phobe back than. 😊

There was that yucky Christmas eve I spent part of the day in Madison with you while you were under going treatment. I made two promises to you that day and I truly tried to keep the first one for as long as I could and watch over like you asked.
As for the second one there will be a donation in your memory made to UW Madison Cancer center.
The week you stayed with me when that awful storm ripped through town and even your truck was damaged!

There were so many more good times thankfully!
Hours and hours of great conversation we shared, our mutual interest in history, walking through different botanical gardens and the bike path...you were even there in the waiting room and one of the first to see my beautiful baby girl the night she was born!

Ali and I truly did love you and thought of you as family, as I know you did us.

You will always be a part of our lives and forever loved and missed!

Our deepest sympathy to Eric and Becky's family. My personal connection to Becky began over 60 years ago as kindergarten classmates starting a lifelong education connection. Going to different schools after that, we reconnected as young moms raising sons the same age - soccer games and classes at the YMCA. Becky student taught at McIntosh Elementary where I was teaching and we ended up years later teaching at Froberg Elementary until retirement. Becky was a long time education friend and colleague. Becky touched the lives of so many - leaving a legacy for the love of reading, learning and appreciation of the natural world. Rest In Peace, dear Becky.

So very sorry to hear of your loss. She was a tough one, surviving a lot of illness. Even so, she seemed to remain quite cheerful through it all (at least when I saw her!). Sending you Whitsitt hugs and love.

Eric, I was so sorry to hear about your Mom's passing. She was a terrific role model growing up -- especially out playing Sinnissippi and enjoying life. You are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.

Eric, just wanted to let you know how sorry we are to hear of your moms passing. We were blessed to have her as a teacher at Froberg for all three of our kids. They loved your mom, and she became a good friend. She was such a wonderful teacher, and a better friend. She will be missed. God Bless.
