My mama taught me everything I know, except how to live without her. Nobody will ever take her place, I love and miss you more than anything in this world.

There's so many things I could say. We were more like sisters than friends. Becky always made me laugh. I'll always remember playing kids games out in the yard at the big house in Northside. Years later riding around with one of our guy friends. The night we went to the Drive In to watch the Exorcist. It scared us to death and we couldn't sleep all night. To many stories to tell. I love you Becky to my heart.

Becky was such a wonderful person. When I married Charles Tackett in 2001 she made me and my children feel so welcome. She and I had some wonderful times together and I will never forget them. She was always making things fun for my daughter and Ali. Michele always wanted to go spend time with her Aunt Becky and Ali. Charlie and I will really miss her. God has truly gained an angel and I can't wait to see her again. Love and miss you Becky.

I'll never forget, back in high school, when we would carpool together. After school we would blare the music in Rebecca's little corolla, the music she obviously didn't like and every day she would say "oh god Ali, how do you listen to that gibberish" and then she'd do her impression of that song. She was so much fun, and had a way of making life enjoyable. She became like a second mother to me and she will forever be in my heart. If I told all the stories I have of her, I'd write a novel, but God gained one beautiful angel and I'm so bless to have been able to get to know her

I'm so deeply sorry for the passing of such a sweet and loving soul as Becky. How well I remember our many family adventures we had growing up when Becky and Penny were both very young but still old enough to get in to everything. And the many fun times we older girls had at your parent's house staying overnight and of course the two younger ones (Becky and Penny) wanted to be part but were just too little to hang in all night. Such fond and wonderful memories and especially seeing Becky grow up into such a beautiful young woman and then become a mother to her own daughter. Her life was far from easy over the years and her health issues were certainly difficult, but she was a fighter up to the end. She left her mark on the world and will definitely be missed. My love and prayers for all of you as you live life without this sister. I do truly understand your pain. With much love, Shelia...
