Described as "bright and kind," Becky was and is an excellent student, who especially loves math and science."
"By the time of third grade, Becky had become a devoted fan of the local youth football league, attending all the games and learning all the cheer routines led by the all-girl cheerleading squad. The next year, Becky made the cheer team herself. According to Heather, she "glowed" when she received her own cheerleader's outfit, many a "girly" girl's dream come true."
"Becky Pepper-Jackson eather also reported that Becky's becoming a member of the cheerleading team also "dramatically increased" her "confidence and happiness" and gave her a "sense of belonging and camaraderie" for which countless youth as well as adults yearn. The experience also "taught her the importance of responsibility, trust, and team building," a key aspect of maturing. Becky was particularly "proud to have served as part of the base for her cheer team's pyramids""
