In 1998, her first self-released album, &quot;Places in My Heart&quot; paid tribute to songs that inspired her along the road of life. Recently, Rebecca had the pleasure of working with highly acclaimed pianist, Marvin Goldstein. This association led to their work last year on Rebecca's second, and newly released album, &quot;I Would Follow Thee,&quot; an inspirational and timely collection of sacred and peaceful songs centered on the Savior, Jesus Christ. In this album, Rebecca's clear and melodic voice, entwined with Goldstein's elegantly arranged piano accompaniment, beautifully delivers a message of faith and hope in One who is greater than us all.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:10.0pt;mso-line-height-rule:exactly'><span style='font-size:7.5pt;font-family:Helvetica;color:#6F451B'>Rebecca is the mother of four beautiful children, the step mom of two wonderful kids, and is happily married to the man of her dreams who supports her in all of her endeavors.
