Some lights shine so brightly that long after they are gone, their reflection remains. Rebecca’s life was one of those. She gave herself generously, leaving behind memories that continue to put smiles on the faces of her friends and loved ones.
Becca was the sweetest soul; the kind of person who left things better than she found them. She was organised and thoughtful, always willing to lend a hand. I remember when we first became friends: we shared a room on a work trip when we were colleagues at a former organisation. That trip marked the beginning of a friendship I will always treasure.
Rebecca carried a free-spirited energy that made you want to be around her. She was warm, funny, and real. She carried light wherever she went, and she left joy behind. She loved life. She lived life too, in the way she celebrated her friends, in how she showed up for people, and in how she could turn even the simplest moment into something memorable.
My birthday this year will always stand out. Rebecca was by my side all day, making sure everything went smoothly and enjoying every bit of it with me. She was selfless like that. Becca always made people feel seen, valued, and celebrated. She was her own gift to us all.

Rebecca had a way of bringing balance to every room. She was generous, thoughtful, and deeply present in the lives of the people she loved. I saw it in how she planned her friends’ weddings and birthdays, and in how she showed up in both big and small ways. Rebecca poured herself into the people she cared about.
I had known her since university, and she was always full of life. She never held her feelings back; if she cared about you, you knew it. We laughed together a lot, often about the most random, silly things. She loved food, so much so that I jokingly blame her for why I couldn’t lose weight this year! But that was Rebecca: she lived fully and enjoyed life. If she wanted to do something, she found a way to make it happen. She was determined and capable, and she did so well for herself in her career.
At work, she was the glue that held us together, making sure we found joy in the little shared moments as a team. She created a sense of belonging wherever she was.
If I could thank her for one thing, it would be for her kindness and the good influence she had on me. The lesson she leaves me with is simple: enjoy your life now. Don’t wait, because life waits for no one.

Rebecca lived fully with love. She showed us that the measure of a life is not only in its years, but in the light, kindness, and inspiration we leave behind. She was loved deeply, and she gave love freely.
We will carry her memory always. And we will never forget.
