In Remembrance

My parents and I traveled to Portland a couple of times when I was a child to see my Uncle Buck, Aunt Marge and my cousins. We went to a carnival, and I threw a ping pong ball into a glass fish bowl thus winning a goldfish. We were sure it would die by morning, but that fish lived for years. Becky was a good "fish mom" as I couldn't take it with me on the remainder of our vacation. As an adult, Becky came to Wyoming to visit and brought her eldest daughter. She stayed about a week. I saw her at a family reunion in Halliday, North Dakota but have since had limited contact with her. I was sad to hear she had been ill. Family was always so important to her, and she was a walking encyclopedia of Lynch Family history. I hope you girls will find comfort in the pleasant memories you share.

I will remember my friend Becky with her warm smile and big heart, along with her spirit & spunk. She was a loving Mother & Grandmother. Becky & I just seemed to hit it off from the moment we met. We enjoyed the simple things together. Some good conversation, a road trip listening to great music, and occasionally getting into some “good trouble” & then laughing about it. People find each other at the right times in life and we had that time & those memories to cherish Even in her last days, Becky maintained her sense of humor. She was brave and courageous throughout some of her toughest days. “Vaya Con Dios” (Go With God) my Friend and Rest In Peace at last.

Becky was my sister in law and she kept in contact with me after her brother, my husband, Jim Lynch passed. She always included me, keeping me updated on family matters. I truly appreciated the fact that she continued to say that she was my sister. I will miss talking to Becky and laughing about the good memories.

Becky and I spent the majority of our summers in the swimming pool. We had sleepovers and rode our bikes all over. Becky was like a sister to me. She loved her daughters, Melissa and Valerie, and grandchildren immensely. Although we'll miss her, I am so glad she is out of pain.
