I remember when I was in college, Harry took me to a bar & gave me some tips about patrons, he said the ones to worry about were the quiet ones.

Veterans Day is coming up tomorrow and we should remember Harry as a proud veteran of the Marines in the Pacific during World War II.

Dear Dan,
Thank you so much for your heartfelt sympathy and memories of my father. Having been associated with him through Jackson Products, you no doubt are familiar with one of his favorite mottos, "Aim High" which is indicative of his zest for life. He was a great man who is greatly missed.
Kindest regards,
Jeanne Illenye & The Beck Family

I've worked for the City of East Grand Rapids for 12 years and I can say of everyone who has ever come into these offices Mr. Beck was the nicest, most friendliest man around. I just loved to see his smile; his thoughtfulness to ask about my fellow employees. I am surely going to miss the best resident I was blessed to serve. Peace be with you all.
