Rebecca Jean Archambeau

Rebecca Jean Archambeau “Bug”, 32, of Greensboro, NC, passed away at her home on May 15th, 2017. 

Rebecca was born in Duluth, Minnesota on November 22nd, 1984 to Donald and Gale Archambeau.  In February of 1998, the family moved to Greensboro, North Carolina.  She graduated from Ragsdale High School in Jamestown, NC in 2003.  She was able to spend the last 13 years with the love of her life, Davin Hughes. 

Following high school, she attended GTCC for welding to be able to follow in her dad’s footsteps and join the Journeyman Boilermakers.  She began the Apprenticeship program in late 2003 and continued to work, travel, and make lifetime friends with the Boilermakers until 2012.  She joined Deere-Hitachi in 2012, as a welder, and remained there until her death.  In 2016, she began sharing her love for Tupperware alongside her mom as a Tupperware Consultant. 

Rebecca enjoyed spending her weekends with friends camping and fishing.  She loved to spend hours on the couch with her mom working on crafts.  She had a passion for and loved animals of all kinds, especially her own dogs, Debo, Alexis, and Zeus; rabbit, Shorty-Lo, and turtle, Spikette.  Her smile, sense of humor, and laugh could light up any room.  She never met a stranger and was loved by many.
