Becky, as she was affectionately known, was born on May 5, 1949, in Kansas City, MO, to Joseph A. and LaVerne (Allen) Shepherd. A lifelong resident of Harrisonville, Becky found joy in the simple pleasures of life. She was united in marriage to Robert "Bob" Cameron on August 19, 1972, in Harrisonville. Together, they created a loving home, raising two wonderful children, Lynn and Justin, who carry forward their parents' spirit of compassion and strength.
Becky was a devoted Registered Nurse, dedicating many years of her career to caring for patients in the operating rooms at Belton Research Medical Center. Her passion for healing extended beyond the hospital doors, as she continued her commitment to care at Heartland Spine and Specialty Hospital in Leawood, Kansas, even after her retirement.
Throughout her life, Becky and Bob cherished their time spent at their cabin in Colorado, where they created countless memories surrounded by nature's beauty. These memories will forever be treasured by her family and friends.
Becky was preceded in death by her parents and her beloved husband, Bob, who passed away on June 9, 2023. She is survived by her son, Justin (Cassie) Cameron, and daughter, Lynn (Jason Brigham) Gaines, both of Harrisonville, MO; her sister, Cindy Lees, of Belton, MO; three grandchildren: Morgan Cameron, Devin Cameron, and Will Gaines, all of Harrisonville, MO, who will carry her spirit in their hearts; and many other relatives and friends.
