IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Rebecca Joanne
Sweeney
July 24, 2017
Yorktown – Rebecca J. Sweeney, beloved wife, mother, sister, and friend, lost her hard fought 7 year battle with breast cancer on July 24, 2017, surrounded by family at home. She was 58 years old. Her memory will be cherished by her husband, John, and her children, Jennifer and Matthew. A special thanks goes out to her sister, Roxanne Kumagai for all her help throughout this fight.
Becky was born in Ventura, California in August, 1958 and met her husband at Castle Air Force Base, California in 1990. From there she began a 26 year journey across America. She resided in Yorktown the last 14 years. Becky was a kindergarten and pre-school teacher and loved working with children, but her greatest joy was being a mother. She was a life-long learner and active in the Healing Touch community. Becky loved hiking, kayaking and nature in all its wonders.
The family will receive friends and family from 4:00 till 6:00 PM on Friday, July 28, 2017 at Berceuse Funeral and Cremation Traditions in Hampton. Immediately following at 6:00 pm, Becky's life will be celebrated in the funeral home chapel by Rev. David T. Hampton.
