Surrounded by her loved ones, Rebecca (Becky) Lynn Davy passed away on March 22, 2022 after a courageous battle with breast cancer. Born December 8, 1964 to Arthur and Joan Teasley, in Fortuna, she was the youngest of 5.

Becky graduated from Fortuna High in 1983, where lifelong friendships were made. She was the life of every party and took every opportunity to get together with her friends. “The hostess with the mostest,” she was always ready for the next get together, especially with her girls. She loved her friends. Becky never met a stranger – “the more the merrier” was always her motto. Her door was always open and she greeted you with a smile and a cocktail. Whether she was coordinating everyone meeting up, mixing up the cocktails, or dancing the night away, if Becky was there the party had arrived.

On May 17, 1986 Becky married her husband, Barry. A few years later they welcomed their son, Travis, and then daughter, Bailey. Becky loved her family and was proud of her children. One of her biggest accomplishments was her children. She was especially proud of Travis when he joined the United States Navy in 2011. She loved sharing stories and pictures of where he was and what he was doing. From the time her kids started playing and through college, Becky spent her weekends chasing soccer games around the county and state to watch them play. Anyone who knew the Davys knew their weekends were spent on a soccer field. Her love for soccer and the youth continued even after her kids were done playing. She served on the Eel River Youth Soccer Board for 18+ years, filling just about every position on the board at some point, from coordinating refs, to registering kids, to opening her home to coaches from the UK every summer. On any given weekend you could still find her at the soccer fields.

Becky spent 24 years working at Linda’s Hallmark, where she got to share her love for decorating and Chrimstas with all of Fortuna. She had an eye for decor, especially during Christmas. With the sound of Peanuts Christmas music playing, she would turn her house into a mini-Hallmark store every year. Aside from the lack of sunshine, it was her favorite time of year.

Cancer may have taken her too soon, but cancer did not define her. Becky was a lover of sunshine, laughter, the beach and Christmas. Her favorite vacation spot was Mission Beach, San Diego with her family and her besties, eating fish tacos on the beach and boogie boarding in the ocean.

Becky is preceded in death by her parents Art & Joan, stepfather Howard Hammers, and father and mother-in-law Jim & Phyllis Davy. She is survived by her loving husband, Barry, and her two kids, Travis and Bailey; her siblings Denise (Henry) Anaya, Sue (Monica) Teasley, Will Teasley, Scott (Leslie) Teasley; her brother and sisters-in-law Tracy (Valerie) Davy, Tim (Sue) Davy, Greg (Bonnie) Davy, Jody (Ed) Leivas, Darby Davy, Troy (Cindy) Davy, Tammy (Matt) Forsell and numerous nieces and nephews.

May we all start each day with the same mindset Becky did as she faced her journey. She never once wavered in her fight and positive attitude to keep trying. She embraced each day with hope, love and gratitude for those supporting her journey. From her amazing nurses, to her family and friends both near and far, she was never alone.

Becky’s celebration of life will be held at the Loleta Fire Hall on Saturday, April 9, at 1 p.m. Donations in her name can be made to Hospice of Humboldt, the Loleta Volunteer Fire Dept, or a charity of your choice.
