from from someone who knows Monday, June 16, 2008 - 14:51 (Agree/Disagree?) Someone passed on your post to me and I wanted to comment—for one, you are not a relative of the Christlieb or Lindfield family. If you were, you would know that Becky’s mother is still very much alive. As for a couple of your other comments—"without ever making contact with her again, to my understanding. When Becky joined the Family they were cut off from contact with her or their grandchildren." Your understanding is flawed as this is also not true. Becky has kept in close touch with her parents during the time that she has been a Family member. If you were a relative you would know that. So who exactly are you and what are your motives for posting this? Concern for the children? Do you even know them? (reply to this comment)

From cheeks Monday, June 16, 2008, 20:19 (Agree/Disagree?) I think the key is "I am doing research." If she was genuinely a relative she would say I am looking for whomever, as I am whatever to them. We looked for my Hubby's Dad for ten years and I never said I am doing research on my husbands father. I think she is looking for a book deal.(reply to this comment)

from Phoenixkidd Monday, June 16, 2008 - 14:11 (Agree/Disagree?) Knew them way back in 1994 through 1996 in Santa Ana, CA, I am sure their kids are just fine, Gaby left around 1994, but don't know if the other's left. Out of all cult members I can think of Becky is one of the nicest people I know of and was such an encouragement to me.  people can talk Sh** about some Family members but there are those that really left an impression on me of understanding and caring individuals.   (reply to this comment)

From edna Thursday, June 19, 2008, 14:15 (Agree/Disagree?) Thanks for your reply.  Yes, Becky always was an impressive person - so beautiful, kind and thoughtful.  Contrary to what two others posted here as replies to my inquiry, I AM a relative of the Christliebs, although we have been out of touch for many years.  I have no ulterior motives, no book deal pending - I could care less.  It's just that Becky has been on my mind of late and I wonder how she is and where she is today.  I know her father passed away recently and yes I do know her mother is alive.  I mis-wrote when I said her parents were both gone.  My apologies.  Rather than inquiring of Avinall (her mother) or other relatives, because it's still a touchy subject with them, I thought I'd use these resources to perhaps find out how she is today.  Thanks again for your kind response.(reply to this comment)
