Rebecca Evelyn Trotter, 67, passed from this life on January 6, 2020. There is no doubt that her next life will be spent with her Savior.

Services will be Saturday January 11 at 10 am at Eagle Mountain Baptist Church, with interment following at Azleland Memorial Park.

Becky was a very strong, resilient, loving and caring person, one who felt that taking care of the ones around her was her calling. She was described by many as a very kind and helpful person, and that’s a wonderful legacy to leave.

Becky was an educator her entire working life. Though she spent most of her career as a band director in several different school districts across Texas, she also put that educator heart to work running the early Poison Control Center based at Cook Children’s Hospital. She visited schools to teach about safety with the kids, and she was often the person on the phone when your child got into something and you needed to know what to do.  The pull of the band director life and the sounds of the band on the football field proved to be too much though and she went back into the school systems. Her goal was always to return to her alma mater, Azle High School, to work, and she achieved that goal, being hired there as a Vice Principal. Though she was no longer directly educating kids, she still had the involvement with them that she loved, still able to influence and help direct them. She moved into Administration for the last part of her career and loved that as well. When she wasn’t working, she loved to create, painting, sewing, creating something beautiful from things that were broken, that was something she loved to do. She loved growing things as well, loved a garden, and plants in the house. She was one of a kind, loving and loved, and will be sorely missed.

Becky was preceded in death by her father, Roy, and her mother Evelyn. She is survived by her brother, Roy B. and her beloved Aunt Joyce Phillips, Uncle Billy Bunch, and many cousins. She is also survived by her “adopted family”, her best friend and “sister” Sheri Bush and husband Bobby, the rest of Sheri’s family, Vicki and Bradley Hicks, nephew Sawyer Walker-Hicks and niece McKenna Hicks, to whom she was always Aunt Becky. None of them were ever sure who adopted who first, but apparently there is certificate proof of the event. May this wonderful woman be forever remembered lovingly and never forgotten.

Should anyone wish to make a donation in her name, the Azle Education Foundation would be her preference. She respected the work they do for the schools very much.
