Barbara A. Becker of Monroe passed away on Tuesday, Dec. 1, 2020, at Garnet Health Medical Center in the Town of Wallkill. She was 77 years old.

The daughter of Gustave and Margaret Miller, she was born on April 14, 1943, in Mount Vernon.

Survivors include her daughter Deborah Kohrs and her husband Kenneth of Monroe; her son William “Bill” Becker and his partner Beth Caldwell of Walden; daughter-in-law Cynthia Becker of Harriman; and five grandchildren: Jason, Matthew, Jack, Ty and Reagan.

Barbara’s greatest joy in life was her family, especially her grandchildren. Barbara was a significant part of their lives and they were made richer because of it. Children gravitated to her because of her warm heart and loving ways.

She is also survived by sisters: Margaret “Peggy” Benson of Port St. Lucie, Fla., and Patricia “Pat” Winkelmann of Eastchester.

Barbara was a member of St. Anastasia Church in Harriman.
