The Retired Active Men (RAMs) of San Luis Obispo offers condolences to the family of George Bekey. He was an esteemed member of the RAMs for many years and was our "poet laureate" for reciting poetry. He had a skill for selecting and reciting poetry of interest to our members at our weekly Coffee Cabinet meeting and our monthly RAM Luncheons. He will be missed greatly.

Our deepest condolences on the passing of George Bekey. We will treasure memories of his inspiring friendship and mentorship and hope and pray that he will be with his beloved late wife Shirley in heaven as he continues to lead the studies of the mysteries of the universe. May his memory be eternal. Anastassios and Yolanda Chassiakos
