Rebecca Sue "Becky" Sawyer, 66, was born to Rebecca Burch and Veron Wright in Glasgow, Missouri. She was the second of four children.

Sue accepted Christ into her heart at an early age. In1997, she became a faithful member of Second Missionary Baptist Church in Grandview, Missouri, under the tutelage of the late Dr. Donald D. Ford I.

She was educated in the Kansas City, Missouri School District. As a Mighty Lincoln Tiger, she graduated from Lincoln High School in 1970.

Her first employer after graduating was Sears Department Store that was located at 15th & Cleveland. After several years, she moved on and became a long time employee of UMB Bank where she received numerous accolades for her dedication to exceeding the needs and expectations of the bank's customers.

After six years of dating Sue married her soulmate, Gregory B. Sawyer in 1978. To their union one child was born, Michelle R. Sawyer. She was sincerely dedicated to her role as a mother and she poured every ounce of what she had into raising a well-rounded, confident and independent young woman.

Sue was a "fashionista" before the term became popular. She always took great care in her appearance and every article within her wardrobe appeared as though it was designed uniquely for her! She was a ray of sunshine and laughter at every family event. The fun was always enhanced tenfold when Sue arrived.

As motorcycling enthusiasts, Sue and Greg joined the American Heartland Hog Chapter in 2006. Sue took great pride in navigating from her back seat, although not invited to do so by Greg. There was a time when she took a short break from her navigating talent, after members of the chapter, including Greg, teased her for approaching the wrong bike during a ride to Minnesota. She made adjustments to the belongings on the bike, up to and including putting on the helmet in preparation for mounting the bike, before realizing the bike belonged to someone else.

During her illness she developed an appreciation for bird watching. Her favorite being the hummingbird, some say that hummingbirds are beautiful, but their personalities are for the birds. However, Sue had a calming effect on them as they had on her. Seems they had a mutual understanding. Although their wings beat 70 times per second, she would sit still and allow them to hover within inches of her face as she enjoyed their beauty.

Sue was peacefully called home to be with the King on Wednesday, October 17, 2018, where she can now Walk Around Heaven All Day. She was preceded in death by her mother Rebecca Burch.

She leaves to cherish her beautiful memory: her beloved husband of forty years, Gregory Sawyer; her dearest and precious daughter, MichelleSawyer; her sweetest granddaughter of all, Unique Edwards; sister, Connie Burch; brothers, Gerry Burch, Sr. and Rodney Burch (Masako); special nieces and nephews, Brianne Burch, Fonya Reynolds, LaShelle Burch, Alyssa Burch, Alexander Burch, Gerry Burch, Jr. and Garrin Burch, along with an array of other relatives and friends, including her Harley family who will miss her big heart and the laughter that she brought to so many.
