Here is a bit of background on Linda Becker from her family 

Linda Becker, who was in November of 2020 diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Following days after being diagnosed we met with a Kaiser doctor and got started on treatments right away. Over the course of the year two different treatments were tried that could possibly attack the cancer. Unfortunately in December of 2021 found out from a scan that the treatments have not been working unfortunately. The doctors gave the prognosis could be months to a year. As of right now Linda is going through different infusions to help stop the spread of the cancer. At this time my sister in law works in cancer research and they're trying to find a treatment that may possibly work for the type of cancer. Linda is a wonderful amazing person and she and her husband Dennis have been in Valley Ford at Valley Ford Market for the past 18 years. Being a part of the amazing wonderful community and always trying to do what they can.

 

Linda was born and raised in Healdsburg. Linda grew up on a farm and fell in love with horses. The passion grew with horses as she got older and began to go to horse shows. Linda's mother Lucille and her father Jean owned Batemon Meats in Petaluma when Linda was growing up. In her senior year of high school she asked Dennis Becker to prom. From the time of going to prom they fell in love. On April 16th of 1972 Dennis Becker and Linda got married. Soon after getting married they bought Batemon Meats from her parents. In April of 1986 they adopted their first son Steven and soon after in 1987 they adopted their second son Michael. In the mid 90s they bought Agius Grocery. In the 2005 they bought Valley Ford Market. Linda and her family have been a part of the community of Petaluma/Bodega Bay area for many years. Throughout the many years of business they do anything they can to help out with community fund raisers and do what they can to help out the community. Linda is one truly amazing person. We want to thank everyone and the community for your continued support and prayers through this time.
