In lieu of flowers
Background
Becky had a great love for education and believed passionately that literacy and a love of reading could open doors and inspire children throughout their lives.
Kids Need to Read is a great local organization whose primary mission is to get books into kids hands and encourage literacy.
Hospice of the Valley
We could not have navigated the past few years without the care and dedication of Becky's Hospice team. Specifically, Seda, Maria, Amber, Allison, McKayla, and Dr. Sinha. The love and attention they each gave to Becky and our family was truly remarkable. Contribute to Kids Need to Read

About Hospice of the Valley - AZ
Hospice of the Valley is proud of our 43-year history of caring and humbled by the more than 19,000 patients who entrust us with their care each year. Founded In 1977 by a handful of volunteers, our Mission - bringing comfort, dignity and compassionate care to our community - hasn't wavered in all those years. Today, we provide home-based Supportive Care to manage acute and chronic illness, improve quality of life and help families access community resources. Supportive Care for Dementia works with patients and families in meeting the challenges of living well with a disease that often lasts years. The Hospice of the Valley Dementia Care and Education Campus is set to open in late 2021 to support those at all stages of dementia.As a non-profit, Hospice of the Valley's safety net of care extends to those without ability to pay. In 2019, more than $10 million in services were provided to our community.
We have never turned anyone away for lack of insurance or financial means. But we couldn't do it without the community's generosity.
Thanks to contributions from you, we are able to care for people who have nowhere else to turn, giving exceptional care and peace of mind to patients and their families at one of life's most vulnerable times. Donations help us provide some of the "extras," such as music, massage and pet therapy. We care for medically fragile babies and children; provide community grief support for children and adults; and offer a senior placement service to help families find supportive living arrangements. We assist families with preparing a living will and end-of-life planning. We support family caregivers with mindfulness meditation programs to ease stress.
We feel honored and privileged to serve our community. Thank you for your trust in us.
