Rebecca Wilkocz-Amrom
Savannah, GA - Rebecca Wilkocz-Amrom, age 84, passed away on February 2, 2016 at Hospice of Savannah after bravely battling cancer for nine years.
Rebecca was born and raised in Camden, NJ. She lived in Philadelphia, PA and Cherry Hill, NJ before she and her husband Harry moved to Boynton Beach, FL to enjoy their retirement.
Rebecca was always the life of the party and the center of any social engagement she attended. She was a beautiful woman, in her heart as well as her appearance. She excelled at fashion, interior design and art, and could organize with military precision. Rebecca loved to talk with people and she made friends everywhere she lived and everywhere she traveled.
Rebecca is preceded in death by her parents, Leo & Edith Shapiro, her first husband, Fredrick Wilkocz, and her sister, Freda Cusano. She is survived by her loving and devoted husband, Harry Amrom, her children, Jodi Britt and Adam Wilkocz, and her grandchildren, Michael Ryan Britt and Rachel Alyse Wilkocz, all of whom will miss her wet kisses very much.
The funeral service will be private.

We met Rebecca and Harry about 6 years ago on a cruise and was immediately drawn to their warmth. Rebecca had great charisma and sense of humor. We'll miss that but the memories will remain with us forever. May she rest peacefully and may God comfort the family.
