July 6, 1945 - 2020

It is with deep regret that I have to add Rebecca Rickel to our In Memory page.  According to a church friend of Rebecca's, she believes Rebecca died in 2020.  To my knowledge, there is no obituary for her.  I can say that she when she was a young girl in grade school she lived on East Walnut near S. Hocker.  She went to the old Benton Elementary and then to the newer one.  She had been in a nursing home in Independemce which is where she died.  She suffers no more.  Rest in Peace, Rebecca, and may we see each other again someday.

This is a photo of our 3rd Grade class at Benton.  Rebecca is the 3rd person from the left in the second row.  Notice the lovely smile she had on her face.
