Her life began August 24, 1973, in South Bend, Indiana, the youngest child of William E. and Lois Ann Ampey.

Ampey of Cassopolis; cousins, Pastors Carl O. and Elizabeth Wright; and a host of nieces, nephews, and cousins.

She was preceded in death by her parents; one daughter, Emily Elizabeth Hunley; and one sister, Sandra Crawford McDowell.

Becky will be laid to rest with her father and daughter in a graveside service Saturday, June 19, 2021 at  9:00 a.m. in Calvin Community Cemetery.
