My Guardian Angel  / Jess Rohn (Friend)
I've been thinking about you more and more lately.  I realized that I've never actually written a tribute to you because every time I come to this website I get so caught up in reading what other people write and then I just break down.  I think a turning point for me in figuring out  the role that you play in my life came to me a few weeks ago in a meditation class I was taking.  We were using these things called angel cards and we were supposed to close our eyes and think of a problem in our life or something that we needed closure on.  You were the first thought that came to me and as i had my eyes closed i was wondering what you were doing and how you were and if you were looking over me.  The next step was to pick a card from the deck and examine the one you picked.  I opened my eyes and in front of me was the most beautiful angel in a very colorful and vibrant dress with long flowing hair, and at the top of the card it said "Guardian Angel".  The lady who ran the class asked us to explain what meaning the card had in our life if we wanted to.  I started to cry because at that moment I knew you were looking over me and I knew that you would never leave me.  I love you so much Becky and I will continue to love you until one day in the future I am with you again..please continue to look over me and everyone else and we will continue to keep you alive through our wonderful memories of you.

Yesterday... / Amanda Angellella (Long time Friend )
my thoughts were too long for a candle so i am sharing them here.

well first of all, i play rugby now becky. and let me tell you girl it is CRAZY. and i hurt everyday physically and emotionally when i play. i basically broke a rib, and i am going for x-ray's on thursday, but that isn't the point.

okay so yesterday. we played doylestown. clearly you saw how much they dominated us, but then again we were down 3 girls. okay so after the game was done and everyone was eating. your dad came over to myself and brittnay and the three of us laid down looking up at the beautiful sky. and he showed us two pictures. TWO AMAZING PICTURES. two pictures that when i saw them my heart jumped. i closed my eyes and could feel what it would of been like with you out there on that rugby field. they were from when you played with kutztown woman's team in ninth grade. the first one was you all in a huff and puff running with the ball and according to your father you pretty much dominated. and the second one took my breath away. it was you and your daddy standing side by side just looking out at the game(?) with the same determined looked and the same intensity in your eyes. he told me how much you loved the game, and how hard you played, and how when he does the whole running huffing thing, it is exactly what you did.

yesterday i sat then after your dad got up and thought about you. the sky was blue, the sun was shinning bright, and the wind was blowing, and tears filled my eyes, and my heart filled with warmth. becky, just because you aren't here physically anymore, i honestly know EVERY single day of my life i think of you. and despite the physical and outward signs of pain and hurt, my inner feelings go much deeper, because i am truly missing such an amazing girl.

diane. i know you probably read this. so i wanted to say, i am sorry i haven't called back again. it is hard. but i promise soon i will call, because i would really love to spend time with you. i am spending time with the out of control daddy side of becky, but i need some of the crazy momma side.

love you dearly becky.

just sayin hi  / Mer Horton (friend)
hey,

what's up?  nothing here.  school is so stressful i can't wait until i get out of here.  i'm going to miss it and all of the friends i've made and the teachers.  but i'm going to come back for the musical rehearsals and gym night and i belong to a community theater group that performs here once a year so............... omg this year we're doing Copacabana.  you'd love it (not like you're not looking down on us when we're rehearsing right?) i know that you are!  your mom is so cool and very positive and really easy to talk to.  i like that about her.  tony is.............. ahhhhhh i can't explain it!  he's so difficult and hard to understand.  lol.  he told me that i should find another date.  i think he was hinting towards that he didn't want to go with me but i don't know.  if he doesn't want to go with me then he should just come out and just say it right?  cause it's not fair to me to have him saying this stuff to me.  i hate it.  i belong to one of the support groups at school and it helps me a lot.  but after the period every tuesday it makes me so sad/depressed and in a bad mood.  i don't know................. o guess what!!!!??????!!!!!!!  i met this kid at the "celebration and life" dance and his name is dave he's so cute.  i think he likes me too so that's good right?  i'm  so excited!  i invited him to a show (that community theater does) yea i'm so excited but his cousin is moving into his own house i'll write later and i'm a school so i'll finish later ok see ya sweetie i love you so much (i have to finish writing about dave to you!!!!!!!!!)

Becky... / Staci

Last week was my last sandburg play ever! I remember my first. you were wild praire rose and you made all of us laugh and smile! The time we sang "General John Muttonchops" and we couldn't get down our salutes! you taught us how!  I remember sitting in the LGI part of the auditorium one play practice, and you and laura hatrock coming in from rugby practice showing us your huge bruises from it! I also remember one day sitting in the middle of the auditorium and you walking past me wearing a tye-dye shirt,sweatpants and sandals.(i don't know how i remember that, but i do!). And then i remember seeing you a few weeks before 'it' happened. you had your car keys and were dangeling them in front of Mrs. Gordon. Thats the last time i saw you! I really wish it wasn't! I could really use some advice for things Becky! i've set my standards to be just like you! I know that it isnt possible but i'm trying my hardest!!! I involve myself in everything i can! All i want is to be like you! You've touched so many lives! If i can touch people's lives, i'll be one happy kid! You were an amazing person and now you're an AMAZING angel!!! Your family and friends were blessed to have you in their lives! I feel blessed to have known you. Even if it was only for a year! You were one of the only 9th graders that made me unafraid of sandburg! Now i walk the same halls you walked as a 9th grader with confidence! And when i stop to think about it, i know that i can do that because you were once in my life. I saw as what you accomplished as impossible for my standards! I'm slowly breaking through impossible because knowing you has given me confidence!! Thank you for being one of my heros Becky!!! I love and miss you!

Love / Someone Who Misses Becky (friend)
It never fails to amaze me how much love and care is evidenced here. If only you could have held onto that as proof that nothing can change how much you are loved and needed, so that you wouldn't have to be missed so much now. Close

WOW / Mer Horton (good friend )

ok well............ the fall drama show is over, musical and gym night.  i can't believe it's been 14 months since your death.  in my mind it's been not even a day.  i miss u so much each and everyday.  when i wake up each morning i always think about u and your family.  i still have to talk to your Mom somehow someway maybe she'll get my e-mail from this tribute.  like i said in my candle red seniors were in the house those nights u probably had a big part to do with all of that right!?!  "he's" being so mean to me again.  melissa keeps telling me that she hates his guts and just to forget about him and he's not even worth my time and energy.  i know she's right ms. cloak even says that to me ( all my friends) say that to me and i know that their are all right but i don't know............. it's like o'connor remember how stuck on him well it's like "replaced" o'connor with "him" but no one can replace the "relationship" that ryan and i shared eventhough we had a lot of disagreements/arguments i still loved him!  & even that night when we were on the phone together talking about how much i liked him and he told me that he didn't like me at all i still loved him so NO ONE could replace "us" & i def. would not let "him" do that.  i had a dream about ryan and he was at school and we were talking about school related things and then he had to go and we gave each other the biggest hugs that anyone could give one another.  i miss him so much i mean to call him but i don't have the time/energy/guts to call him or i wind up calling "him" and i hate that i need to stop it soon!

Time to pay my respects...  / Jackie Bona (Friend/classmate)

Unlike most of the people who gave their condolences here, I didn't really know Becky as well as I should have. We had the same choir class, sitting in the soprano section during my Junior year. She was also in my Biology class. Bio was when I got to know her, at least a little bit. She also seemed to put a smile on all of our faces.
I wish I had more to say and I also wish I had gotten to know Becky when I had the chance. I just know that she affected a lot of people, especially those around me, so even though we weren't as tight as she was with some of the other 'choir kids', I still miss her all the same.

our prayers are with you  / Randy &. Ellen Omvig (met mother )

I'm sure that our Josh has met up with Becky and the others that have gone before us too soon.  I pray for peace for all of us and hope for the other Heros who suffer.  May God grant them peace and understanding.  May our country understand that help needs to be given for our brave soldiers who did what was asked of them, and now only wish to be given what they were promised.

I Saw You Today Becky  / Jennifer Kepner (Mason) (Friend)

I saw you today Becky in the smiles that I witnessed.
I saw you today Becky in the laughter that I heard.

I saw you today Becky in the kindness I was shown.
I saw you today Becky in the sweetness of my fruit.
I saw you today Becky in the brightness of the sun.

I saw you today Becky in the warmth of a fire.

I saw you today Becky in the delicate wings of a butterfly.

I saw you today Becky in the determination of an athlete.

I saw you today Becky in the strength of a diamond.

I saw you today Becky in the innocence of a child.

I saw you today Becky in the eyes of sweet, beautiful angles.

Thoughts / Mimi Morrow (Friend)
Becky, 3 years ago yesterday marked the day my daughter Kate survived a head-on accident on her way to school. I know that life is so fragile, and that even the thoughts of what could have been on Jan.7, 2003 still bring tears to my eyes. And then I think of you and that you're not here. Your absence in your family's life still leaves a huge hole that can never be filled, only maybe covered with a fragile web of thoughts and dreams and memories of the incredible person you were and how many lives you've impacted before and since. One day at a time. One hour at a time, one breath at a time. That's all that can be done. Close
