Rebecca Ann “Becky” Conover Strange, 46, of Knifley, KY died Sunday, July 11, 2021 at the TJ Health Columbia Emergency Room as the result of injuries sustained in an automobile accident. She was born May 4, 1975 in Adair County, KY to Rev. Gene and the late Cathy Johnson Conover.
Becky graduated from Adair County High School and Lindsey Wilson College. She was a member, teen class Sunday School teacher and was very involved with the Ladies Ministries at Columbia Church of God. She was also an independent Scentsy consultant along with her husband, Brian, and loved crafting.
Becky loved life and was always concerned about those around her and was always there to lend a listening ear or a helping hand, often going above and beyond, even when she didn’t feel like it herself. Her smile was infectious and her sassiness is what made her so unique. She lived a godly life in word and deed and she was never tired of sharing her testimony or the love of Jesus.
In addition to her mother, she was preceded in death by her grandparents: Rufus & Lillie Conover, Richard & Ada Guffey, Fred Johnson, and Pat York; and a brother-in-law, Troy Strange.
