Rebecca "Renee" Kokoska

Rebecca “Renee” Kokoszka born June 29, 1957 passed in her home in Denver after battling cancer for 4 ½ years on July 23, 2016. She was born in Morrison IL to Bobby and Jane Beggs. Married to David Silverman March 16, 1986 and then to Shane Kokoszka on Dec. 21, 1997. Renee loved her family, traveling, plants and animals. Due to her love of animals she had established a kennel Enchanted Forest where every animal was treated as royalty. She would ask during the day what television or radio stations did the owner watch or listen to and then she would place in each individual animals room a television or radio and would switch stations so the animal felt at home. The walks would be scheduled at the exact time they would have taken their walks with their owners. Of course with this type of animal care you had to book months in advance. She took that same love to help Shane establish and build HR Pain Management Inc. and Health Restoration Inc. everyone that enter the doors were and are still treated with care and true concern about them establishing good health whether through physical therapy, chiropractic, acupuncture or nutrition. She had an amazing capacity to love. Her positive attitude was infectious. In fact one of the hospice nurses said at first she thought her positive attitude was fake until she saw her in times of extreme pain as well as times of helplessness and then she said “it wasn’t fake” she really is the most positive person I have met. Her smile lit up a room and her quick wit added much humor to life. We will all miss her. Survived by her husband Shane Kokoszka, daughter Jacqueline Silverman and spouse Dakota Leuton. Parents Bobby Beggs and Step Mother Marilyn Beggs. Mother Jane Ray and Step Father Floyd Ray, sister Lou Ann Beggs Lopez, Step sisters: Susan Ray Van Maerssen, Eileen Schultz, Cindy Schirmer, Laura Yerk and Jami Tilton.
