(From Simpson Funeral Home)With heavy hearts and fond memories, we announce the passing of a charismatic and courageous woman, Rebecca Lynn Frey. Known to many as "Becky or Beck", she was born August 1, 1960, in Newport Beach, California, and lived a spirited and loving life until April 14, 2025. For 47 years, Rebecca called Webb City, Missouri, her home, where she filled her days with the simple joys of life, her family, and her beloved dogs.
Rebecca was a devoted wife to her husband, Mike, for 33 years, and a loving mother and grandmother to her daughter Jackie, and her husband Brandon. Her son Lil’ Mike and his wife Marilyn. Rebecca had 4 Granddaughters, Maisie, Reegin, Leilynn, and Mia and 2 Grand-dogs Luke, and Witcher. Rebecca was also a pillar of strength and resilience in their lives.
Her career was a testament to her spirit; she started on the powder line at Dyno Nobel, and through determination and hard work, retired as a supervisor of the Shell house after 38 years of service. Her story of professional accomplishment remains an inspiration to many.
In retirement, Rebecca found joy in the simple pleasures of life. She enjoyed her mustang, doing puzzles, walking her dog Bo-Duke, fishing with her husband, and swimming in her pool with her grandkids. She loved to cook for her family, and she always made sure no one left hungry, listening to music, and to lose herself in the pages of a good book. She cherished her relationships with her brothers, Herbie and Doy, their wives Patsy and Ruth, and her sister Darlene, fondly known as Sissy, and her husband Glenn. Above all, she loved her family and her dogs, who were the epicenter of her world.
Rebecca's life was a testament to her love and dedication to her family and her friends. Her charismatic personality, courageous heart, and loving spirit will be deeply missed by her friends, family, and all who knew her.
