SEYMOUR BECKER Obituary

Seymour "Sy" Herbert Becker, 92, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, May 3, 2016 while surrounded by his adoring and devoted family. He was preceded in death by his loving daughter, Andrea Becker Silvey. Sy Becker left behind a legacy that began in Trenton, New Jersey on April 11, 1924. He joined the United States Air Force and served his country during World War II. As a 1949 graduate of the University of Miami, he fulfilled a long career which culminated in his partial ownership of S&S Trading Company. In retirement, he was a voracious reader and joke teller. Sy is survived by the love of his life, his doting wife of 65 years, Joan Becker. He is affectionately remembered by his daughter, Roberta Kligman (Monica Anderson), son, Louis Becker (Ron Chencinski), and granddaughters Davi Kligman, Sarah Kligman, and Dayna Silvey. Graveside service will be held Thursday, May 5, 2016 at 3:00 pm at B'nai Zion Cemetery 3915 Gateway Blvd. West El Paso, TX. 79903. Services entrusted to Martin Funeral Home West. 128 N. Resler El Paso, TX 79912. www.martinfuneralhomewest.com

I was sorry to learn of Sy's passing. He was a gentleman and a "mensch." May his memory always be a blessing to his family and to all who knew and loved him.

My condolences to the Becker family. I worked for Sy and Sam in the mid 70's at S & S Trading while going to UTEP. Sy was the one that gave me the opportunity to start my sales career. He filled up a suitcase with samples and the rest is history. Very nice man. RIP
