Rebecca
Kraft
December 5, 1942 – November 8, 2018
Rebecca Kraft, age 75, a resident of Windsor Park in Carol Stream, Illinois, went to be with the Lord on Thursday, November 8, 2018. She was born December 5, 1942, in Dallas, Texas, to Kenneth and Margaret Taylor.
Becky was the eldest of ten siblings. She grew up in Wheaton and graduated from Wheaton Community High School. She then took nurses training at Swedish Covenant Hospital, after which she served in Vietnam as a volunteer nurse. She subsequently went to secretarial school and served in various administrative capacities in Washington, D.C., and Salem, Oregon. In recent years she moved to the Wheaton area to care for her mother.
Becky was a quiet person who enjoyed reading and hiking. Family was always her highest priority and she enjoyed genealogical research. She attended College Church in Wheaton, and her faith was centrally important in her life.
Becky is survived by her daughter, Katherine (Matthew) Clark of Gaithersburg, MD; two grandsons, Griffin and Shyler Clark; nine siblings—John (Mary Tall) Taylor, Martha (Art Grosman) Taylor, Peter (Sharon) Taylor, Janet (Wayne Martin) Taylor, Mark (Carol) Taylor, Cynthia Brown, Gretchen (Bob) Worcester, Mary Lee (Tim) Bayly, Alison (Jim) Lingo; and 27 nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents.
A memorial service will be held at Windsor Park at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, December 15, 2018.
