William C. Beckwith

You were my closest friend and biggest supporter my entire life. I always knew you would be there no matter if I failed , or flew. You loved me for trying and knowing that you would stand by me regardless meant I never really failed. I love and miss you more than I can express and I promise to take good care of Duke.
I know you're with Jimmy, Grandpa, Grandma, Nanny and Bee along with all the other friends and family we have lost over the years. As sad as this day is for me, its a joyful...

Cara and family,
Bill was a longtime co-worker of mine,but more importantly Bill was my friend and contemporary. Bill was a caring person. This was never more evident when another friend and coworker passed away suddenly at the age of 53 almost 7 years ago. Bill made sure he was the one who got to the hospital so he could be with the family of Pete. Although Bill knew Pete was already gone his main concern was being there in a time of need.I think that he knew we were there...

Our heartfelt sympathies in this, your time of grief.
