Chris & Debbie Becker
Chris has been in the Funeral Industry for 30 years now. Deb has been beside him every step of the way for 24 years since Becker Family Funerals was first established in 2000. With the much appreciated help and guidance from Chris’ parents Rita and Don, brother Steve and his wife Bron many years of hard work and dedication were put in to create a solid foundation within the community that reflects the core family morals that makes Becker’s a truly warming and comforting family run Funeral Home. Not only did Chris and Deb get Becker’s off the ground they did it while raising five beautiful children, some of which are now working at Becker’s themselves. Chris and Deb’s dedication to the Funeral Industry has created not only a beautiful environment for us all to work within but also inspired us to meet the high standards they have set for us.
