Janet Rebecca “Becke” Ferris, born April 24, 1953 in Houston, Texas, the daughter of Victor and Nancy Krueger. Becke passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones on April 11, 2021 in San Antonio, Texas.

Ferris, Jr., daughter, Lesley Anne Watts and fiancé Zane Travis, sister Vicki Goodrich and cousins, Kathleen, Beverly, Leah, Martina and Michelle, stepchildren, Caroline and Thomas Ferris and two grandchildren Raelan and Casey.
Becke lived in Houston until moving to Luling, Texas with former husband, James Watts in the late 80’s. They were blessed with a beautiful daughter Lesley Anne.
