Becky loved life. She enjoyed arts and crafts, bowling, dancing and playing pool. She had an appreciation for nature and enjoyed watching birds and other wildlife while sitting on the porch.

Becky was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Michael Hernandez and sister, Patricia Hayes. She is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Ryan and Crystal English of Orangefield; grandchildren, Cassidy, Nadaly, Kadee and Ethan English; sisters, Debra Strahan; Vickie Coburn and her husband, Oscar and Kathryn Russell, all of Orange; one niece and four nephews and many loving extended family and friends.

Cremation arrangements are under the direction of Claybar Funeral Home in Orange.

I love you, Becky. I'm sorry I missed your memorial - I know you would understand because I was at the hospital with Terri. When we were young, we were really close, weren't we? We experimented on some things together and had a great time. I loved that our parents were close & played dominoes so we got to hang out frequently. I can still hear your horse laugh - you laughed loudly like no other, without any concern to what others think. I have thought of you from time to time over my life - always good, happy thoughts. I'm sorry you had to leave so soon. I will think of you the rest of my life from time to time, and smile recalling your crazy antics (which some times got us into trouble!) I love you and I hope that God's plan for you is wonderful. Kiss my Uncle Doug and Aunt Jerry. xxxxxsssss!
