Dearl Brad & Family,
Although I never had the pleasure of personally meeting Becky, I have heard so many lovely things about her from various ISEA members. My thoughts and prayers are with you, and I know that she is certainly in a better place. Sometimes we cannot understand why things like this happen, but know that time will heal and that you have all of those pleasant memories of being with Becky.
God be with you.

My heart is heavy to hear of the loss to the Hudson family. I knew Becky only through Brad and his updates to his many ISEA friends. Becky was loved dearly by her family and friends. I wish I could have had the opportunity to meet such a wonderful lady. To the Hudson family: my thoughts are prayers are with you.

I had the great honor of meeting Becky when Blake and Dillon became friends. There was an instant connection and I loved having conversations with her. She embraced my son and treated him as one of her own and for that I will always be grateful. Her boys are a testament to the great mom that she was. My last memory of Becky will be at Christmas Eve service. As we hugged she whispered in my ear that she was feeling the best she had in a long time. She was thoroughly enjoying the holidays and her family. We are thinking of all of you.
