Rebecca Sue Kruse

Rebecca Sue Kruse, age 68, passed away November 12, 2026 under the care and compassion of the Heart to Heart Hospice of Troy team. Becky was an adventurous child, a rebellious teen, and a fun, playful adult. She loved to climb trees, ride bikes, and play baseball. Becky loved to adorn herself with rings, bracelets, and several pieces of jewelry. Listening to Johnny Cash, watching Annie, and playing bingo were her favorite pastimes.

Although developmentally disabled and afflicted with seizures all her life, Becky did not pass away because of illness or lack of care. Becky passed due to conflicting policies and practices that limited caregivers in their effort to help Becky recover. Her family encourages all who read this to donate to EASTERSEALS MORC which advocates for better care for those living with disabilities. 

Becky is preceded in death by her family, Daniel and Amanda Kruse, Tim and Char Kruse, and Wyatt Phillips. She is survived by her sister, Danielle, and brother-in-law, Scott Phillips, along with several nieces and nephews. 

Becky Sue, we love you.
