I was friends with Becky Levy for nearly 8 years. She (Becky) & I were on the same Napa Special Olympics volleyball team in 2002 which won the gold medal in the state tournament and runner up in the state quiliafier in basketball last year (2007) in Santa Rosa winning the silver medal and she bowled with me in my Saturday league from 2001-2006, although she (Becky) is gone now, but her memory will be with me always and I'll think of exciting memories of Becky with me forever. Love you Becky always & forever. Love, Timmy

I met Becky in 2001-2004, when she bowled in our Special Olympics Saturday bowling with her moving foward roommates, she'll be missed and she was always good to me and the athletes on and off the lanes @ Napa Bowl, she always was in a good mood and had a positive attuide towards me. Thanks again Becky for bowling with us for 4 seasons with us in the Napa Special Olympics bowling. Your bowling coach Nancy & Gil Goodin & Mike in Napa

Oh my God. I just came upon this while trying to find her on Facebook and hopefully reconnect. I met Becky at Girl Scout Camp Bothin. We were about 11. She was my favorite person there. She kept me awake by hitting me with stuffed animals and making fart noises. I'm in shock right now.

I had the honor to play 1 year of Napa Valley Special Olympics volleyball on the Napa Valley Stompers team with Becky back in 2002, she (Becky) & Twila van Damme & I were the only girls on the team that competed in Pleasanton as a state champion volleyball team when she (Becky) helped us win the team a gold medal over Humboldt County in the volleyball championship game against Humboldt County by serving the final 3 points to win the gold medal. You're missed by your friends & coaches in the Napa Valley Special Olympics, please continue blessing us with your love and guide us with the strength to remember your spirit.

I had the chance to coach Becky Levy twice, once in volleyball winning gold in 2002 in Pleasanton in the state championships and in 2007 for basketball in Santa Rosa at the Santa Rosa Jr. College which the basketball team with Becky coming home with the silver medal, she was our team captian for our basketball team for the Napa Special Olympics 2007 basketball team. I will never forget what she said to me, she told me, Matt, stop sucking up while we are playing our basketball game right now here in Santa Rosa and I told Becky your in charge. Thanks for the memories Becky, I know your watching over your friends and family in the special olympics in Napa and Palo Alto.
