Rest In Peace Becca

gangsta

Hello Classmates,

Sad news in sugar land this week.  My dear friend Becca passed away in her sleep sometime between Monday and Tuesday.  She was found by her mother, still in bed, still wearing her eye mask, cuddling with her stuffed T-Rex.  Becca was only 25 years old, yet our group still teased her about being old.  For reference, I'm only 22.  Often when people die their friends always comment on how full of life they were but Becca truly was.  She always wanted to have a good time and loved to laugh.  I remember that she would always repeat things she found funny, over and over until it seemed the words had no more meaning but she still found them hysterical.

One of my favorite moments was when we took a trip to Mexico.  There were six of us and most had just turned 18 so we wanted to party.  Well, one of us was still 17 and when his ID got checked at a club a federali tried to rip it up.  Becca grabbed it from him and yelled "HAUL ASS" we all scattered and laughed so hard about it that we cried.  That is the kind of person she was.  I'll miss her terribly especially next weekend since she was always the person to plan the Super Bowl festivities.  I think I will this year, in her memory.  I'll write to let you know how it goes.
