Rebecca Forward, (Nee Garcia), age 31, born January 23, 1977, in Weehawken, New Jersey.  Rebecca was a loving and caring wife, mother, daughter and sister who had a passion for painting, singing, reading, and life.  She will be missed for her brilliant smile, her unique sense of rhythm and love songs.  She would sing until her voice hit the right notes whether you liked it or not.  She will always be loved for her unwavering love for her husband and daughter.

Rebecca was a graduate of the University of Texas Pan American and Sam Houston State University with a degree in Library Science and was employed by Progreso ISD as a librarian.  Her favorite quote was, “I have always imagined that paradise is a kind of library” by Borges.
