Rebecca “Becky” Ann Hedrick, 79, of Dublin, passed away on Tuesday, April 7, 2026. She was the birth daughter of James Willard Arrington and Edith Alton Arrington. After her mother, Edith, passed away when she was very young, she was raised in West Virginia by her mother’s parents, John Albert Arrington and Indie Annie Arrington, who adopted her as their own.

As an educator, she encouraged others to be curious about the world around them, and to develop their own sense of purpose in it. Becky loved children and was a dedicated employee of Pulaski County schools for over 23 years.

Becky is survived by her children and their spouses, Todd Hedrick (Beth Ann), and Kristen Corboy (Brian). She was a proud grandmother to Sarah Rebecca Corboy, Aaron Farmer, Landon Farmer.
