to the family of Rebecca Ruth Burden / Hossein Parsian (none)
As someone who one day and haphazardly crossed over Becky' memorial site and felt very sorry for her , I want to express my condolences to her family .
Although I never knew or met her but by what I have seen , she must have been loved and respected by many family,relatives and community people .
I hope you people will hold up to the unfortunate event happening in your lives . All you can do now is to take care of her children , cherish her and follow her example of social goodness and kindness she was known for . God bless her .

Missing You / Heather Linseman (Cousin)
So I have been on here several times, typed something and then deleted it, cuz I didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings. Then the more I think of these things the more I hurt...So maybe if I type it and post it I will feel better! ha look at me! Still waiting for you to tell me to do it, or I better not! lol
Beck, I miss you more then I ever thought I could miss another women. All my life we have been close like sisters, the true meaning of BFF! With every monumental moment of my life you were standing next to me, and vise versa. I knew if I needed someone to lean on you would be there, and I was always here for you. So much is going on right now, and all I want to do is have you here with me. Bill's band is opening up for Bret Michaels of Poison, oh how we loved the 80's. I am going to start college soon, so I can find a job I can do even when I am old!
I have so much that I want to tell you, but he took that away from all of us. Oh but you would be proud of me in court, I haven't jumped over the petition to choke him! No to say I didn't want to, but jail scares me! lol See I can control myself if needed! lol
Your little Nick misses you too. He turned 4 last month, wow can you believe it, he is 4. So at his party, I start dishing out cake and ice cream. And it hit me all at once, you were not next to me like usual helping with the ice cream. I said this isn't right, and I looked up at Angel, and she said I know, I know. She new before I could say it what I was thinking. A few weeks ago Nick told me that he misses you, and that you like to play spongebob legos with him. Beck, you played with his new spongebob legos with him on December 1, 2007 when you were here for Williams birthday party, even as little as he is, he remembers the last time he seen you, and what you and him did!
Hmm blows my mind, that Rick was and still is so selfish that he took you from your children and all the others who loved you so very much!
Our lives were changed because of your love and compasion.
And I will not let your memory be forgotten!
Love you Always, Heather
Beck/ Krystle Perry (Friend)
Becky is a beautiful and inspiring person. Not a day goes by without my thinking of her. I worked with Becky at Talecris Plasma Resources. Everyday was full of laughter and fun with her. She was an amazing friend, a devoted and proud mother, faithful wife, and so so much more. She is truely missed, but her spirit lives on with us still. My thoughts and love to the family.
I love you Beck!

Mother's Day / Michelle Miller (Sister) You are my sister, so you don't usually cross my mind on Mother's Day. This Mother's Day is very different. I find you & your children have been on my mind all day. I know how much I miss you & I can only imagine how difficult this all has been on them. Ironically, I think you are the only one who could have conforted them today. You are so missed and so loved. I wish I could hear that laugh or see one of your smiles. I wish none of this had ever happend.
I thought of you yesterday, and for the first time in a long time I didn't cry. I think it was your way of telling me to quit my whining and be happy that you are in a better place. I always used to get frustrated when you would get on to me about grades or about something outrageuos I had said, but right about now even a "I'll bust you in your eye" from you would be amazing. Well anyways, I was thinking about the school store, and to make a long story short we were kinda thinkin about doing a party planning buisness. i thought, now this would be right up Becky's alley. But this time I didn't cry at the thought of you not being there to guide Helica & I as leaders of the company. No, I just laughed and reminisced on all the times I watched you run around like a chicken with your head cut off planning one of Helica or ricky's b-day parties, and the best any of us kids could do to help was stay the heck out of your way. But of course thats just what made you so amazing. The fact that you would rush around non stop just to make sure your kids had a special b-day. Case and point; Helica's quince. I don't think you slept for a whole year, you ate slept and breathed sweet 15. And man did you put on one amazing party.
But anyways I just thought I'd let you know that all that sadness has not gone away, but it's getting easier. All though I still look for that Monte Carlo in the school parking lot, and sometimes I even call the old phone because it just slipped my mind, I am able to celebrate you with memories instead of mourn. But I'm quite sure you already know all this, you told me you always know, and when I asked you what you said everything. I miss you.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope these few words from the Holy Scriptures might bring you some relief in your time of grief...
John 11:32-45
32 And so Mary, when she arrived where Jesus was and caught sight of him, fell at his feet, saying to him: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” 33 Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping and the Jews that came with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and became troubled; 34 and he said: “Where have YOU laid him?” They said to him: “Lord, come and see.” 35 Jesus gave way to tears. 36 Therefore the Jews began to say: “See, what affection he used to have for him!” 37 But some of them said: “Was not this [man] that opened the eyes of the blind man able to prevent this one from dying?”
38 Hence Jesus, after groaning again within himself, came to the memorial tomb. It was, in fact, a cave, and a stone was lying against it. 39 Jesus said: “TAKE the stone away.” Martha, the sister of the deceased, said to him: “Lord, by now he must smell, for it is four days.” 40 Jesus said to her: “Did I not tell you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?” 41 Therefore they took the stone away. Now Jesus raised his eyes heavenward and said: “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 True, I knew that you always hear me; but on account of the crowd standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that you sent me forth.” 43 And when he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice: “Laz´a·rus, come on out!” 44 The [man] that had been dead came out with his feet and hands bound with wrappings, and his countenance was bound about with a cloth. Jesus said to them: “Loose him and let him go.”
45 Therefore many of the Jews that had come to Mary and that beheld what he did put faith in him;

I think of you everyday / Michelle Miller (Sister)
Becky,
I think of you everyday. I wonder if I could have or should have done more. I wonder if this is how things were meant to be or if there was something more that you needed from me. It feels awful when I think of how you were taken. Different conversations and scenarios run through my head all the time. I miss you so much and hope we can all someday find the peace you now have.
I Watched You I watched the way your eyes twinkled. I watched the way your smile gleamed. Everything so perfect, it was all I wanted to be. You taught me how to primp. You taught me how to style. Always your little shadow, we’d ride our bikes for miles. Sisters are forever. Sisters are friends. Even if we’d argue and fight, we always made up in the end. The tree house, skating, secret clubs behind closed doors, Singing, dancing, laughing, I couldn’t love you more. I watched you build your family. I watched you help your friends. I watched as you gathered us, Time and time again. Dreams, wishes, hopes and fears, Good or bad you were always there. You lived by example. You led like a light. You went to church every Sunday and tucked your kids in at night. You were a beautiful person inside and out. You taught me what growing up was all about. Sisters are forever. Sisters are friends. My heart will ache until we meet again. -Written by Michelle Miller in loving memory of her sister Rebecca Ruth Torres
