        Still devastated by Beckie's absence in this World and can only send my heart felt condolences to Kevin and family.

            I really miss seeing Beckie pop up on fb, talking about her chucks. The rose she sent to me after our wonderful great aunt passed away has bloomed so well this year, she would be thrilled that it's doing so well.. It has so much more meaning to me now.

              Sad news. I met her twice (2018 & 2019). A lovely lady. Very easy to talk to.

                I was only thinking of Beckie today whilst I was faffing with my chooks,we had many a chicken chat .Although we never met in person it felt like we knew each other being that fussy over our 'girls'..She's always in our thoughts.

                  She really was, and is still to me, a very special person, who was so funny, bright, and naturally brought a smile to everyone's face, and they don't make many like her.

                    I met her too and, like you all, I really enjoyed talking to her. This is terrible news. A big hug to you dear :spinning: Beckie :spinning:

                      Oh god I'm so sad. I've only just seen this. I can't believe what I'm reading.

                      Met Becky twice at the last two shineyland events. She was so bubbly and chatty and fun. Dave and I spent most of the day chatting with her. She said she'd get Kevin to come with her next time so Dave would have a "non-gardening" pal to chat with. She gave me a couple of lovely plants including "becky's bush". Id kept meaning to ask her what it actually is but she hadn't been on here so much.

                      I just can't believe this. Far too young to be gone. I hope she didn't suffer. :cry3:

                        So sorry @Snorky85 - I thought you had seen this before now; if I had realised you hadn't, I would have dropped you a PM.

                          aww that's ok. I'm surprised I didn't see the post!

                          Been thinking of Beckie most of today. Bless her. It reminds you how precious life is and to make the most of it.

                          Rest in peace Beckie :sad:
