Becky Essex
Beloved sister and aunt passed away Saturday, April 24, 2021 at Ascension St. Mary’s Hospital. Age 59 years. The daughter of the late Gerald and Bonnielou (Bolf) Essex, Becky was born June 23, 1961 in Saginaw, Michigan. Becky was employed at the bakery and deli at Kroger for over 20 years, later as a display artist at K-Mart and Driveline Solutions. She was a devoted follower of the Elvis tribute artist, Leo Elvis Days, and enjoyed camping, bingo, casino trips, and family gatherings. She also loved and adored children and caring for animals. Becky cherished time spent with her nieces and nephews who lovingly referred to her as “Aunt Becky”. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. Becky will be remembered for her caring and giving heart, generous spirit, beautiful green eyes and infectious smile. She lived life to the fullest knowing it is much too short. Becky’s presence in our lives will be sorely missed. When you think of Becky, celebrate the good memories you have of her!
Becky was loyal to her family and friends.
