Rebecca L. Salazar, age 58, of Dubuque, IA, completed her earthly journey on February 28, 2022, at home surrounded by her loving family.  To honor Rebecca’s life, a private family service is being held at a later date.  The Tri-State Cremation Center is humbly serving Rebecca’s family.

Rebecca was born on December 14, 1963, in Richland Center, Wisconsin.  Her parents, James and Judy (Corey) Miles instilled in Rebecca the value of family and friends.  She spent most of her working years as a CNA at various nursing homes.  Rebecca had a great gift of taking care of others and making them feel at home.  She loved time with family and friends, playing card games, dancing, and a good cocktail and laugh with the girls.  She had an amazing laugh and humble spirit.  Rebecca was a strong and beautiful mom and lil grandma.  She will be forever loved and adored in the hearts of her daughters and grandchildren.  We will treasure each and every memory until we can see her beautiful smile once again.  Thank you, Rebecca, for always staying strong and being you.  May peace be yours forever more.
