    My husband, Greg, and I are so very sad to learn of the loss of this beautiful soul. Dr. Fedele was our dentist for many years. She was an excellent dentist, but more than that, she was a very caring person that made you feel like you were being treated by a trusted friend. Our deepest sympathies to her family. She will be greatly missed. Sincerely, Elaine & Greg Burg

    I was so sad to read of Dr. Fedele's passing. I was a patient of her Father until he passed away and then of hers when she took over the practice. She was a genuinely nice person and way too young to leave this world. My heartfelt condolences to her husband and family. RIP Dr. Fedele - I will miss you.

    I had just moved to Delaware in the summer of 1996 to take a job at the Brandywine Brewing Company when I met Ms. Fedele there, who was in the process of taking over her dad’s dental practice. Since I was in need of a new dentist I agreed to become one of her first patients. 20 plus years of great service. I’m so sorry for your loss.

    My husband and I were saddened to learn of Rebekah recent passing. We began our dentistry care with the Fedeles when we moved to Delaware after graduate school in 1968. How fortunate we are to have had such an opportunity. Rebekah was not only an excellent dentist, she was a caring and concerned professional. She definitely went the extra mile to accommodate our concerns and treatment. Condolences to her family. May she Rest In Peace.

    I too was so sad to hear of Rebekah's passing. My family in Elsmere sent us to Dr. Fedele as children and as we grew and left Elsmere we continued to see both her dad and then her as she took over the practice. They were both great dentists and great people. My thoughts are prayers are for her family and their loss.

    I was totally stunned & shocked to learn of Dr Rebekah Fedele's passing when I opened the mail today, and read a note from the referral practice about it! Her father was my very 1st dentist in 1970, and I continued with the practice after his death, seeing young Dr Fedele; my 2 daughters also went to her from their 1st visits until they moved away. My condolences to her family, & to the staff of her practice. She will be missed; the practice will be missed. She is gone too soon...

    Along with all who knew Dr Rebekah Fedele we are in disbelief. So sad she was living an exciting life that was taken so quick. She was down to earth we would talk about our gardens. She was take charge too taking care of her mom in her time of need. Bless all who knew and loved Rebekah even her animals who were lucky to be cared and loved by her. Bill and Bonnie Spear

    We're so saddened to hear about Dr. Fedele's passing. Dr. Fedele was such a gentle soul who was not only a skillful dentist but also a loving person. Our family has been Dr. Fedele's patients ever since we moved to Wilmington in 1999 and later relocated to Garnet Vally in 2002. Dr. Fedele and her crew alway treated us like a family; our two daughters Jennifer and Karen even came back for dental work when they were away in college: they won't go anywhere else no matter how close or convenient it might be. Our deepest condolences to her family, and to the staff of her practice. She will always be in our memories and prayers.

    I first met Bekah when we were young children, 8 and 9 years old. We became close friends and never looked back. Our friendship remained strong through summer swim team, school, high school, parties, college, and graduate school, pets, boyfriends, husbands, children (mine), loss of parents and more. I thought we’d go through middle age and old age the same way. Bekah was a wonderful friend and her death leaves a big void. I only hope she’s in a better place and we will meet again some day, some how. Love you, Bek. Alix

    What an outstanding woman, dentist and especially a wonderful human being just like her father. I was 16 and started with her father in 1965/66? When he was in Elsmere on kirkwood highway ( now a pet grooming center) for a teenager who was having dental work at my cost , I still feel in my heart he gave me rock bottom or below prices, that’s the way he was, always had such great respect and love for this man, professionally and personally, when he passed I just gravitated to her as a natural occupancy. I moved to Lewes 5 years ago and lost touch with them so I was totally shocked and extremely saddled by her passing . Beck’s and her father were true friends who practiced compassion, sincerity and true love for their patients and all people. The world has lost two wonderful people, as the saying goes the seed doesn’t fall far from the tree. God bless to you both, I’ll see you in heaven for my annual check up
