Rebecca “Becky” Anderson
Organ Donor
/November 28, 2024
Rebecca “Becky” Anderson was a loving wife to her husband, Steve, the most amazing mother to her boys, Brandon and Kyle, and the best BeBe to her grand-boys, Bennett, Nolan, and Rone. She loved her daughters-in-law, Jessica and Shelene, and was glad to finally have some girls in the house. Becky loved being outside whether that was at the beach, on the lake, or just on the back porch. She could turn any situation into a positive one. She had the absolute best attitude about life. She was loving, friendly, and giving. She was even able to give life at the end of her life. Becky was able to save three lives by donating her heart, lungs, and kidneys. We can’t think of a better legacy for her to leave behind. We will forever miss her and look forward to the day we get to see her again.
