Minutes after Dale's death last December, it was said that Becky stood in his Meriden, Conn. hospital room and sang "It Is Well With My Soul" in a fine soprano voice which moved nurses in the room to tears. On Aug. 30, 1983, Becky wore new jeans, a plaid blouse and white blazer to the airport to board a plane to go visit her parents in Korea. In the night sky at 33,000 feet over the Sea of Japan, Korean Flight 007 would, by an appalling blunder or in cold blood, be shot down by a Soviet Union missile attack.
