Benjamin Leslie Becker, went home to be with our Lord on Tuesday, Aug. 14th 2012 at the age of 80. Born in Indiana and raised on a farm, Leslie learned the meaning of hard work and what it took to provide for a family.

Living on the farm from his childhood, he and Elizabeth raised four children, Grant Becker, Brian Becker (deceased), Kathi Hendrick and Julaine Sheridan.
