I’ve just learned Becca is gone. It saddens me so for all who knew and loved her. She was my nurse practitioner and I just adored her. Generous with her time, she was also so down to earth and very caring. I met her at a difficult time after just moving to Little Rock after a hurricane. She was so lovely and supportive. My prayers for her sweet soul, her family and her friends.

Becca took such good care of her patients for many years. I will never forget her healing hands and the kindness and concern she always showed to me. I will miss her sweet smile and demeanor and will never forget her. I know she touched many lives. Mine. I'm so saddened today to know she has passed. I regret that I was not aware until today or that I was never able to say goodbye to her. She took care of me all my life. Prayers to you, her family, and God bless Becca and all of you.

I am saddened for your loss of your wife & Mom... I have fond memories of all of you... you are in my thoughts & prayers.
Phil, I know you are in shock right now, for who wouldn't be...
please call me when some of the shock has worn off & let me know if there is anyway I may be of help to you. Over the past several years I attempted to call your old phone number 520-8665, but remember that you rarely answer it. Take care of yourself....

Becca diagnosed me with cancer just 21 months ago and was so professional when she told me. I was early stage 1 and had everything taken out in 1 week after I got the call. She truly saved my life that day. Becca will be missed by all the clinic's patients. My prayers are with her family and close friends. God's Blessing to All.

I had a brief 12 month encounter with Becca when she asked me to help sell her Mother’s lake house in Hot Springs. She was the quintessential Southern Lady. Strong, efficient, caring, prudent, kind, etc. I had the opportunity to meet Phil and Parker. I was experiencing a typical 60ish health issue during our business relationship. She, self-sacrificing and I am sure, typically, checked on my health often, and we became friends. Unfortunately, I did not know of her health issues. But, I can most definitely say that the world is better and blessed by her life. God’s Grace to her loved ones. And I am honored to make a financial donation to charity in her honor.
