Rebecca L. "Becky" (Darr) McGriff
Dec. 28, 1969 - March 22, 2014



On March 22, 2014, after a long, hard, well fought battle, Becky finally was able to stop fighting. The fight is over but the battle was not lost - Heaven just gained a perfect, beautiful and strong Angel.

Becky touched the lives of so many of us. Her huge heart filled with empathy, infectious smile, sparkling personality and contagious laughter, will be irreplaceable.

Becky was the perfect daughter, the best big sister, a loving wife, an incredible mother, favorite aunt, terrific cousin, and inspiring friend. Always beautiful, inside and out.

For Becky, family was everything and she leaves behind her very best friend, her husband, Michael; a protective and brilliant son, Zachary (20); her beautiful and sassy daughter, Madison (15); as well as the rest of the Darr Team: her parents, Michael and Linda Darr; grandma, Marceline F. "Marcy" Robertson; sisters, Shelly Darr Hernandez, Stacey Darr, and Erica Darr (Becky's own personal nurse and guardian angel); Brother- in-law, Santiago Hernandez; all her favorite little people, Karleigh, Kennedy, Allysia, Josslen, Tyler, Brayden, Carlos, Anthony, and baby Jaxson, and so many special aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, and co-workers. We all thank you Becky, for all the wonderful memories, you will remain in our hearts forever and we will continue to BELIEVE. XOXO
