Rebecca (Becky) B. Catherman , 72, born on January 8, 1949 in Glenville, Georgia, passed away on Sunday, February 07, 2021 after a courageous eight year battle with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy.
Becky was preceded in death by her parents Sarah (Moore) Nissley and Benjamin Brameister. Becky left behind two children, Sarah Barnes of Terre Hill, PA and Keith Barnes of Gainsville, FL in addition to a sister Mary Brandmaster of Richmond, VA.

Becky loved Jesus and focused her time and energy on serving the church. She was an active member of the All Saints Presbyterian Church in Richmond, Virginia. Her favorite things to do included singing hymns, going to church, participating in activities held by the church and teaching others about Christ.
Full of sunshine and joy, Becky really enjoyed being around people, watching the dynamics between others and always cared about those with whom she spent time. Becky had an amazingly kind and forgiving heart with a genuine real perspective on life with a great sense of humor and a hint of spunk. She was loved by many and will be greatly missed.
Will miss you
Rest in blessed Peace Becky. You journey wasn’t always an easy one and our paths didn’t cross often but I’ll remember your exuberance and your smile
I will miss you, my dear sister in Christ, but we shall meet again in the presence of our blessed Lord and Savior! Ann McGehee
Becky’s faithful attendance at the worship of God, even when it was hard for her to make it, was a testimony to her love for Jesus. Also, she was a witness and encouragement to all who knew her. I look forward to seeing her in glory one day soon.
The thing I most rememer about Becky was her huge grin, and how it lit up her whole face. We will miss that special light but know that she is home at last.
