Becca Leo McWhorter, age 93, of Megargel, Texas, died February 5, 2015 at Grace Care Center in Olney, Texas. She had displayed her strong will and humorous caring attitude in overcoming strokes, two hip replacements and a heart attack over the last few years of her life and finally decided it was time to move on to a life of comfort in Heaven and even God seemed to let her make up her own mind. She was loved by her care givers and fellow residents and they helped her go in comfort as a caring team.

Visitation will be Saturday, February 7 at 12:00 p.m. at Lunn Funeral Home, in Olney Texas with funeral services following at 1:00 p.m. in the Chapel at Lunn Funeral Home with Scotte Clark officiating. Interment will be in the Megargel Cemetery under the direction of Lunn Funeral Home.
