She was a loving friend, a dedicated mother and a devoted wife. She always wore a smile that brightened room. Becky brought warmth, dedication, wit and humor to every situation and to everyone she encountered.

She graduated from Cinnaminson High School and earned a BS in Civil Engineering from Bucknell University, where was active in Marching Band and the Delta Gamma Sorority. Becky was a certified Professional Engineer. Becky was Sr. Vice President of Montgomery Consulting Group, with over 30 years' experience managing projects for Florida's Turnpike. During that time, she won many awards including, most recently, the Bob Coster Visionary Award for Lifetime Achievement. A consummate professional, as well as a caring and compassionate co-worker, she brought her considerable skill, experience and poise to every situation, working on many of the most complex and controversial projects included the Turnpike/I-595 interchange, I-75 Relief, Coastal Connector and the Turnpike widening from SR 408 to SR 50.

Outside of work Becky was an active member and Deacon at First Presbyterian Church of Orlando, an enthusiastic member of Arete, Executive Women of Influence, an award-winning participant in Toastmasters and a mentor for young people at Tildenville Elementary School.
