I am deeply sorry about the loss of your mother, wife, grandmother and friend. From the wonderful family Mrs. McCollum reared and cared for, it is evident Becky is a strong, determined, dedicated, spirited and nurturing person that gave much of herself to her family and friends. It is a blessing to see her in each one of you. I am sorry I cannot be there to remember her life, please accept my heartfelt sympathies with love, peace and courage.

fargo ndScott and family,
So sorry to hear you have lost Becky. She was a sweet friend and will be missed by many. I worked with her for 10 years and we’ve had many laughs. Becky had such a fun spirit, always a smile on her face! Kids loved her, she always gave them a smile and a “Good Morning, how are you?” They especially loved her “speciality”…..buttered toast!! 🙂 She would put the butter on the warm toast with a spatula!! Ha Ha!! Oops…maybe I shouldn’t tell everyone this!! Rest in peace Becky, we love you!!
