Rebecca was survived by her children, Ricky and Stevie Payne, Charlotte (Steve) Immel, and Melissa Henderson, grandchildren; Christian and Aaron Immel, Drew Henderson, Toran, Scottie, Shannon and Selena Payne. She was a devoted and beloved mother, grandmother and friend. She pursued a career as a nurse technician for the elderly, for which she received several accolades. She enjoyed long chats with family members, finding meaning in everyday occurrences, and taking care of her parakeet, Chipper. Her strength, perseverance, sass and good wit, even in times of hardship, serve as inspiration for those who were lucky enough to call her family.
