ISAAC F. "IKE" BECK

A great human being that made a major contribution to the lives of many people. Eternal rest be granted.

Remembering Isaac brings to mind an article I read about lifestyle businesses where the idea is to enjoy what you do. Every business has a bottom line that can be difficult at times but all in all I think Isaac really enjoyed what he was doing. I really enjoyed talking to him.

Mr Beck was a very rare human being that has really left his mark on this earth in so many memorable ways by his thoughtfulness and sense of purpose and foresight and his generosity to so many people in an abundance of ways over his lifetime. He will never be forgotten.

My sincerest and heartfelt condolences in this time of sorrow. With regards Marcia D.
