Memorial website in the memory of your loved one
This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Becky Miller who was born in Tennessee on January 19, 1977 and passed away on May 01, 2006 at the age of 29. We will remember her forever.

Martha Carole and I had been married 11 years, had Brent who was 10, and Sally who was 6. We had only planned on having 2 children, but Sally prayed for a little sister and Becky came along on January 19, 1977.

I remember when Becky was too young to crawl, we would put her on the den floor, and she would roll from one end to the other. She could always figure out how to get something done.

As Becky got older, when MC bought something that needed to be assembled, Becky could do it and then I didn’t have to.

When Becky graduated from high school, I think she really wanted to attend UTM, but I encouraged her to take engineering at Tennessee Tech. I think Becky would agree with me that she made the right decision, because that’s where she met her wonderful husband, Jason. We all love Jason as our own.

I believe Becky loved doing things for other people more than anyone I know. She planned a 60th birthday party for MC and I, and then later, did most of the work on her class reunion decorations. Becky never did anything “just a little” but always went all out. Every year, around Christmas, Becky would call a nurse at the Vanderbilt children’s cancer hospital to find some child in need who might not receive any Christmas presents. Becky would buy presents for those kids and never wanted any of them to know where they came from. Last year a 15-year old boy said all he wanted was to be able to give a present to each member of his family. Becky bought those gifts so that his request was fulfilled.

Becky fought her cancer bravely and with all her strength, with Jason always at her side. She went for her checkup 2 weeks before she died, and everything looked fine – no sign of cancer.

The doctors had told Becky that she would probably never be able to have children because of the chemo treatments, but on December 15, 2005, Andrew Wesley was born. Becky loved Andrew dearly and was able to spend all day with him the Saturday and Sunday before she died. Becky called us the Sunday afternoon before she died and was upset because their minister at the LaVergne Methodist church was going to be transferred in June and they all loved him.

Becky left us early that Monday morning with a blood clot in her lung. Becky, we will always miss you and love you dearly. You have left a void in our hearts. We will never understand why you left so soon, but all we can do is put our faith and trust in God. God will never forsake us. We know Becky is with God and we will meet again in heaven someday. As Paul said in Romans 8:18, “I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is about to be revealed to us.”

God gave us the gift of Becky’s life for 29 years, and with God’s help and all of your help we can make it through this. We love you all. 

Its been over a year now and I think about Becky everyday. I don't guess I'll ever quit thinking about her.
