"She really cared about other people, so it just seems so unfair that she would go in this way," neighbour Annie Wawryk said.
Wawryk has lived on the same street as Becki for nearly 20 years.
She said at the time of the accident, Becki's partner was away for work.
"He will have rushed back so obviously we feel terrible for him," she said.

Police spent the morning talking to nearby residents, with some calling for a safety upgrade at the busy crossing.
"You often find yourself thinking the train has gone past, I can go and there's another train," Wawryk said.
South Australian premier Peter Malinauskas said the circumstances of the crash "will be closely examined to work out if anything can be done in the future to prevent it that is reasonable".
