Becky was born August 16, 1965, in Caledonia, Minn., to George and Melpha (Sagdalen) Fishel. Proving once again, they always leave the best for last; she was the last of nine children born. At the age of six months, after the death of her mother, she went to live with Ed and Marge “Ma and Pa” Richmond. Becky attended school in La Cresent, Minn., and graduated in 1983.
On June 13, 1992, she married Steven Ames in La Crosse. together they had one son, Zachary Ray Ames, and they later divorced.
Rebecca Lynn (Fishel) Ames, known to many as “Little Becky” was one of those people who had the largest of hearts. Her kindness, positive attitude, and tiny smile were enough to brighten anyones day. Becky always did her best, but more importantly she always made sure those around her were at their best. Little Becky was the kind of person to offer the shirt off her back, the food off her plate, and the warmth in her heart to any soul in need. She wasn’t always the one with the most to give, but she was always the one who gave the most. Becky will be forever loved, forever missed, and never forgotten. We love you, Little Becky.
