Rebecca “Becky” (Lund) Menk was born April 17, 1953 in Redwood Falls, Minnesota to George and Bonnie Lund.  On June 19, 1971 Becky was united in marriage to Steve Menk.  She resided in Franklin until her death.  Becky was Postmaster in Morton, Minnesota for 28 years, and after her retirement she owned the Red Sled in Morton.  She was well known for her hugs to everyone she came in contact with.  Becky’s favorite thing to do was spending time with her 5 grandchildren – they were her pride and joy.  Becky was a very talented crafter, garage sale enthusiast, and could make anything out of nothing.  She will be greatly missed by many.

We love you to the moon and back Mom, Grandma!
