JERSEYVILLE – Rebecca Dee (Winder) Elliott, left this world on Monday, September 2, 2019 of unknown causes, at the age of 52 years young. 

Rebecca was born on December 1, 1966 in Compton, California to Leslie Roy and Linda Lue (Johnson).  As a child she developed an enthusiastic and compassionate outlook on life, her ambition preceded her.

She grew into her charismatic and genuinely loving soul, gaining lifelong friends along the way. 

Shortly after graduating from Chino High School, she started work at Alpha Beta, where she met her first husband, and love of her life.

Her children were her absolute world.
