Inez Becker

Inez Marie (Tolleson) Becker, 84, of Eleva, passed away early Friday morning, May 25, 2018, at American Lutheran Communities, in Mondovi, with her family by her side.
She was born to Lawrence and Laura (Emberson) Tolleson on Nov. 21,1933, as the youngest of nine children. Inez graduated from Eleva-Strum High School. She married the love of her life, Stanley Becker, at Eleva Lutheran Church on June 5, 1956. Inez passed away 10 days short of their 64th anniversary.
Inez was a lifetime member of Eleva Lutheran Church. Her faith was an important part of her life, where in her early years she sang in the choir and taught Sunday school. Inez’s life was dedicated to caring for her family. She enjoyed family time, baking, going to the lake, playing cards and going out to eat.
