Rebecca ‘Becky’ Clark passed away on November 17, 2019 at
the age of 38. She was born September 17, 1981 in Longmont, CO to Randy
and Diane Clark.
As a young girl, Becky was smart, vibrant, and
outgoing. She was a talented gymnast, avid hunter, and general sports
enthusiast. She was a very nurturing person and mother hen to her younger
siblings, Tina and Nick. She always led by example and kept everyone in
line.
Becky graduated in 2000 from Skyline High School where she
was involved in numerous clubs and activities. She was a member of the
National Honor Society, FBLA, Color Guard, and the Poms dance team. Most
notably, she was captain of the varsity softball team. Becky was a
talented utility player but always loved her time behind home plate. She
was a strong, physical athlete who never played a game where she didn’t sacrifice
her body for an out. Becky was recognized as an all-conference player and
honorable mention at the state tournament her freshman year.
After high school, Becky moved to Greeley and purchased her
first home at the young age of 19. She attended the University of Northern
Colorado, receiving a Bachelor’s in Business Administration with an emphasis in
Finance. She worked for several years in the financial services industry,
earning multiple exotic trips for her salesmanship and excellent customer
service. Most recently, Becky expanded her career becoming a licensed real
estate broker.
Becky loved to travel and enjoyed a beautiful beach more
than any other destination. She visited nearly every island in the
Caribbean, enjoying the breathtaking views in Barbados, Saint Lucia, and
Antigua, to name a few.
Her adventurous spirit encouraged some memorable lifetime
moments full of laughter and love. She climbed a volcano, went skydiving,
swam with wild sea turtles, enjoyed a hot air balloon ride, and rode bareback
on a swimming horse in the clear ocean water. But the smaller moments in life
were truly the most important to her. Spending cold mornings in the duck blind
with her dad, sneaking away for lunch and a quick trip to the casino with her
mom, and playing cards and games with friends and family.
In 2010, Becky met and fell in love with Doug Dawson. They
made a home in Granby, CO and welcomed identical twin boys, Liam and Connor, in
January 2012. Being a mother was Becky’s greatest joy in life. She cared and
loved for those boys like no one else could. Becky filled their days with fun
activities and so much love. Becky taught her boys at an early age to read and
ski, two of the many things she thoroughly enjoyed. In addition to her role as
a mother, Becky found great joy being Aunt Bach, spoiling her goddaughter,
nieces, and nephews whenever possible.
Becky’s huge heart was one of the best things about her. She
was kind and generous to all. She enjoyed giving back to those in need. For
many years, she raised funds for two organizations dear to her heart: Avon
Walk for Breast Cancer and the March of Dimes. She was also very active in her
local community, giving time and resources to the local Parent Teacher Organization,
Grand Angels, and Mountain Family Center. Becky continued to give, even after
her death, helping dozens of people as an organ and tissue
donor.
A Celebration of Life will be held at St. Francis of Assisi
Catholic Church (3791 Pike Road, Longmont) on Saturday, November 23 at 11 a.m.
Lunch will be served following the service.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to The Liam and
Connor Education Fund, care of First Western Trust, 1900 16th Street, Suite
