I had the privilege of working for Becca at Carolina First Bank. She was such a joy and inspiration to me and to everyone she encountered. Becca could always be counted on to make me smile and always had a kind word or thought to share. I will miss her warmth, compassion and sense of humor tremendously. Sonnie, Keith, Mr. & Mrs. Deese, Kim and families - you are all in my prayers. God bless you.

Keith and Sonnie

I worked with Becca at Carolina First Bank. I was on the conversion down in Mount Pleasant when I first met Becca. She was so friendly and helpful, it made a usually very stressful time, fun and positive. We worked together alot after that, during various conversions and training classes. I know she is up in heaven cracking jokes and figuring out how she can get something going up there. I will miss her. Please know that you are both in my prayers and thoughts.

Dear Sonnie, Keith, Deese Family, & Johnson Family,



Becca was a special person to everyone who knew her. We know that she will be greatly missed by everyone that knew her.

Sonnie, remember that you will always have a place to call home in Mount Pleasant across the street from Uncle Terry and Aunt Susan. We all love you and want the best for you in the future. One of my favortie verses I want to say to you is from Psalms 30:

"Sing praises to the Lord, O you his saints, and give thanks to his holy name. For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning."

Sonnie, please remember that your Mother always had joy every morning and would want you to have it also. Becca will be smiling down with Joy on you every day of your life and so will the rest of your family and friends. Remember we are all here for you.



Love,

Cheryl, Reggie, Jeffery, & Carly

I am devastated to hear the news about Becca. She hired me and was my supervisor when I worked at Carolina First Bank. She was a kind, caring person who always had an encouraging word or a funny story to share to brighten the day. Everyone who knew her always spoke and thought very highly of her. I will miss her tremendously. My thoughts are with the Johsnon and Deese families.
