Christine A. Becker, age 73, of Montgomery, IL passed away peacefully on December 28, 2025 at Rush-Copley Medical Center. She was born September 18, 1952 in Watertown, NY to Ward and Rose (Toper) Becker.

A woman of many interests, Chris found joy in needlepoint, singing, had a passion for all sports and earned her lifeguard certification. She enjoyed spending time at lunch outings with her friends, sharing stories and laughter. Her enthusiasm for life was infectious, and her ability to connect with others made her a cherished member of her community. Chris was a dedicated member of St. Anne Catholic Church, where she found solace and strength. Her faith was a guiding light in her life, and she took comfort in her church family. Chris's kindness extended beyond her immediate circle; she had a way of making everyone feel special and valued. Her spirit will forever live on in the hearts of those who loved her. She is remembered not only for her kindness and strength but also for the laughter, warmth and good humor she shared with everyone she met. Though she may have left this world, her love and light will continue to shine brightly in our memories.

Chris is survived by her brothers Ward James (Wanda Boggs) Becker, Robert Becker and Terry (Joan) Becker, her niece Courtney (Dylan) Becker, her nephew Dan (Brittney) Becker, one great niece and two great nephews. Also surviving are several extended family members and many, many friends.
