About | Rebekka Anne Frankforter, 32, of Hamilton passed away peacefully at her home with her loved ones by her side on Sunday, Dec. 26, 2010. She went home to heaven after a long arduous battle against cancer. Anyone that knew Bekki, knew of her strength and sheer will for this disease not to bring her down. She lived with this cancer for 7 years and touched untold lives in the process. Bekki made friends everywhere she went with that attitude of hers that we were all just people, and she cared for them all, from the highest doctor to the guy on the plane loading her bags, she made an impact on all these peoples' lives that won't soon be forgotten. Anyone that saw her towards the end knew she would give her last remaining strength to give you a quick backrub and she won't take no for an answer. Bekki was truly about helping and loving people and that is why we lost an angel today. She was born to Ernie and Jo Frankforter on Dec. 17 1978 at Miles City, Montana. Bekki traveled the world with her family whom she loved like no others. Her father being a retired recruiter, led Bekki to many different places including Germany which she talked of often. She graduated from Hamilton High School in 1997 and graduated from the Montana School of Massage in 2005. Massaging was Bekki's passion and it all shows how much she wanted to help others. Bekki loved to go hiking with her husband and of course, it is hard to think of Bekki without thinking of her dogs she loved so much. Bekki has always loved animals which started as a child and just continued into her adult life. Her time at the Humane Assc. shows just how much she loved all animals. She would have gladly brought home every stray if you would have let her. She will be sorely missed by her puppies that have stood by her during all this: Foxy, Sugar, and Buddy. They brought Bekki the strength to continue when no one else could. Bekki was rarely sad and almost always happy and smiling, so let's think of her smiling down on us right now. Bekki is survived by her husband, Jason Skinner, her parents, Ernie and Jo, her brother Robert, sister Jessica and many, many friends. |
