On November 30, 2023, at the age of 71, Rebecca "Beckie" Ellen Lovelady peacefully passed away, leaving behind love and laughter that will forever be cherished. Born in Indianapolis on October 10, 1952, to Cecil "Jr" and Iona June McClary, Beckie was a beacon of light in the lives of all who knew her. Beckie dedicated over 20 years of her life to the State, serving in the Department of Education's Finance division. Her commitment and hard work were emblematic of her strong sense of responsibility and dedication to her community. Known for her exceptional tolerance and boundless love, Beckie was affectionately considered eligible for sainthood by those who knew her best. Her sharp wit, caring nature, and infectious laughter made her a joy to be around. As a good Christian woman, she found solace and community at the East 10th St Church of God, where her faith flourished. Beckie had a special fondness for laughter, and one of her greatest joys was indulging in episodes of "I Love Lucy. " Anything Lucy brought a smile to her face, reflecting her appreciation for humor and the lighter side of life. Her warmth and good humor extended into her role as the conductor of her family train, skillfully navigating and keeping everything on track. As the backbone of her family, Beckie would go to great lengths for the ones she loved. Her husband of 51 years, Roy, and son Toby (Christiana) Lovelady were at the center of her world. Sister Suellen (Dave) Gibson, bonus son Willie Riddle, nephews David and Darren Gibson, sister-in-law Donna, and even grandpuppy Tinkerbell were all recipients of Beckie's boundless love and care. Beckie's role as the elder sister was not just a title; it was a reflection of the maternal love she showered upon Suellen. Their bond was a testament to the strength of family ties.

Born on August 13, 1942, to Cecil Dale and Julia Antoniette Woods, Julia lived a life as vibrant and feisty as befit her personality. Julia, a former cleaning supervisor for Merry Maids, was not your typical 9-to-5 personality. She was bold as the margaritas she enjoyed, and a sense of humor that could light up any room. Julia was the life of the party, and if there was laughter echoing, you could bet she was at the center of it, entertaining everyone with tales that often left them in stitches. Unapologetically blunt, Julia proudly declared that she didn't take any nonsense from anybody. She stood up for herself and, true to her spirit, encouraged others to do the same. Julia was a fierce mama bear, defending her loved ones with unwavering dedication. Family gatherings, especially during Christmas, were her domain, where she hosted with unmatched enthusiasm. Her love extended beyond her human family; Julia doted on her dogs as if they were her own flesh and blood. Milky, Barney, Star, and Sophia were more than pets--they were cherished members of the family. Julia is survived by her loving children, Bruce (Kathy) Ehrgott, Richard (Dawn) Ehrgott, and Christine (Eddie) Simpson. Her grandchildren, Bruce "Bubba" (Lindsay) Ehrgott Jr, Megan (Randy) Schmidt, Sydney Ehrgott, and Shelby Ehrgott, and great-grandchildren, Austin Ehrgott, Brycen Schmidt, and Landon Schmidt, will carry on her legacy. Her sister, Kathy Geminden, and numerous nieces and nephews also mourn her passing. Julia is preceded in death by her son, Daniel Allen Ehrgott Jr, and her siblings Doris Bunnell, Cecil "Bud" Woods, Kenneth Woods, Gerald "Buck" Woods, Janet Thompson, Wanda Holt, David Woods, and Rebecca Woods.

At Extendicare he transformed the gardens and pond into a lovely oasis, donating both time and funds to make the outdoor space beautiful for everyone. He maintained the pond with fresh water every week to make sure the 100 plus fish he had placed there survived. He was able to do this up until he got ill at the end of October.
