Best coach ever. I never learned a single new wrestling move in college. I learned them all in high school.

Mr. Beckham was a great man, who I will never forget! I loved him! He was a stern man, but he had a soft spot with a great laugh. RIP Mr. Beckham CHS WARRIOR!!!

At Warren Central High School I remember fondly lots of fun and silly times at my home and church. May peace and comfort of God be with his family and friends.

Many fond memories of our time in politics in Lake County and fun get togethers. Real gem of a man with a wonderful personality. Sorry for the family but a welcome addition to heaven!! Djb Cpa :-))

Mr. Beckham was our gym teacher & wrestling coach at Gavit High School. What a Gentleman!. He never raised his voice. Great memories. Maj. William Jukich United States Marine Corps (Retired) Harrier Attack Pilot from Northwest Indiana. Semper Fi
