Very sorry to read of your passing. We knew each other since elementary school. You were a wonderful person. I never heard you utter an unkind word about anyone.
Becky Rollins, 58, went to be with the Lord Sun, May 9, 2010, in Los Angeles from cancer. Becky was born in Hallock, MN Sept 27, 1951 to Mahlon and Ramona Waller. They moved to Stillwater where she graduated in 1969. She was an accomplished pianist and received a B.S., M.S. & Ph.D. in music. She taught piano & music at Saddleback College in Los Angeles. She loved playing the piano, being with her many friends and husband Jerry, & visiting her family in Minnesota.
Rebecca is survived by her parents, Mahlon and Ramona Waller of Northome, MN; older brother Tim of Hines, MN - children Keri of Blackduck, Chris (Tara) and daughter Harley of Mankato, Caleb of Blackduck, Josh (Tina) - Gabriella, Gavin, Liliana of Tenstrike; younger brother Mark (Beth) of Park Rapids, MN - children Erica of Fridley, Ben of St. Paul, and Andy of Park Rapids. She is also survived by her husband, Jerry Taylor, who cared for her and loved her very much. She was preceded in death by her first husband Roy Rollins. She will be sorely missed by all of us, yet we know she is at peace playing the piano for all the angels in Heaven.
Becky Waller , Can't think of Choir and Vagabonds without Becky . She was our backbone in choir playing all our music and singing in choir as well. She was smart and gifted, good to see she followed her dreams and used her gifts to teach and encourage others with the love of music 🎶. Playing piano in heaven, now that's the ultimate gig . 😇
Becky was my sister-in-law for 18 years and was a talent to behold. She was gifted in school which I was not and her muscial ability was world aquainted. She lived her music and it was represented in all she did. She and I shared moments from walks in the woods trying to hunt for partridge to going to an opera where she got me to experience it up close. I cherished her as a musician and as we grew older I was able to appreciate her more as a person. She shared herself with my children and taught them to express themselves in whatever they chose to do. She was a good listener. My grand-daughter reaped from her musical talent and is able to play and sing. Becky you are missed by those who lives you touched. Thank you dear friend.
