This online memorial was created in loving memory of Becky Vidmosko, whose life story is told throughout this memorial website.

Becky is my youngest child and my only daughter. She has 4 older brothers - Tim, Terry, Todd and Chris. She didn`t have much contact with her biological father in the last few years of her life, but she was extremely close to my husband whom she called dad. From the moment she was born, she was special & spoiled! Her brothers loved to care for her and as she got older one of them was always there to protect her. She was very much a tomboy and could hold her own with her brothers. She was stubborn, opinionated and loved to talk and shop! She was also hard-headed and had to have her way in everything. She was never afraid to speak her mind - and she made sure she was always heard! She was everything I wasn`t and I truely admire her for being such a strong woman.

On July 5,2003, I lost my daughter,my best friend in a motor vehicle accident. She had suffered severe injuries and died from head trauma. We miss you baby so much! Dance with the Angels sweetheart...

Becky was such a fun-loving and giving person. She was always at the mall or playing basketball or tennis with the neighborhood guys. Oh, how she loved the boys!!!  She loved to babysit for her friends. She would have made a wonderful mom!  Of course, I can`t forget her phone- I think it was attached to her ear!  A few days after her accident, we went to the car to get her belongings. The first thing I looked for was her phone- in my mind I knew she would be upset if something happened to it. I finally found it, under the shattered glass on the floor. When I got it home, I put it on the charger and her greeting popped up. She was forever changing it- but I never expected to see this message. It said " Treat today as if there is no tomorrow" . How ironic is that????

Becky had plans to go to school for massage therapy , then go on to become a physical therapist. 2 months after her death , she received a notice that she had been accepted to the school she was hoping for. I am soooo proud of her for that!

My favorite times with Becky were when we would sit on the porch and watch the storms. Becky used to call us "sky freaks" - we both loved to watch them and the sunsets and sunrises.  But more important to me is, that was our time alone- to talk. I loved to hear about her life, the boyfriends and all her dreams for the future. But now there is no future for my baby...all I have is wonderful memories.

(Thank you Alicia for the beautiful picture)

I miss you baby girl so much.........

Please sign Becky's guest book and let us know you came to visit. We will remember Becky forever.

Becky was also an organ donor. She was unable to donate any major organs because of the -internal injuries. But she was able to donate her corneas, bone and tissue. Even after her death, she was helping others. I am so proud of her for giving the gift of a better life to over 50 people. Her corneas went to 2 women who now have the gift of sight. I hope they see the world as Becky did and are enjoying all the sunrises and sunsets through her eyes.

When You feel Lonely

When a person you love passes away

Look to the night sky on a clear day.

The star that to you, appears to be bright,

Will be your loved one,

Looking upon you during the night.

The lights of heaven are what shows through

As your loved one watches all that you do.

When you feel lonely for the one that you love,

Look to the Heavens in the night sky above.

God hath not promised skies Always blue,

 Flowers-strewn pathways all Our lives through;

God hath not promised sun Without rain,

Joy without sorrow, peace Without pain.

But God hath promised strength For the day.

Rest for the labor, light for the way,

Grace for the trials, help From above,

Unfailing sympathy

Undying love...

REST IN PEACE

 You are not forgotten loved one

Nor will you ever be

As long as life and memory last

We will miss thee.

We will miss you now

Our hearts are sore

As time goes by

We miss you more

Your loving smile

Your gentle face

No one can fill your vacant place.
