Harry Beck Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Cantelmi Long Funeral Home - Bethlehem on Dec. 25, 2025.
Harry C Beck, aged 86, of Bethlehem, passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by loved ones at his side on December 21, 2025.
Harry's passions were as diverse as they were engaging. He was an avid sports fan, with a particular love for the Phillies, Eagles, and Flyers. His enthusiasm for the games was infectious, and he could often be found cheering on his teams surrounded by friends and family. Harry's love for music was epitomized by his admiration for Elvis Presley, whose tunes were the soundtrack to many family gatherings.
An outdoorsman at heart, Harry found solace and joy in fishing, taking pleasure in the serenity it offered. His love for bike riding kept him active and brought him great enjoyment. Bingo nights were another favorite pastime, where his competitive spirit and friendly demeanor made him a well-known figure.
He is survived by his brother, Joe Beck of Bethlehem and his brother Bruce Beck of Walnutport; his close family members, Art and Linda Frey, with whom he resided along with his brother Joe, Amanda and Michael Valenti, Ashleigh Frey, Brenda Renner and her companion Brian Cerino; and many beloved nieces and nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews, and great-great-nieces and nephews.
Harry was preceded in death by his parents, Harry Beck and Agnes Schwenk; his siblings, Kenneth Beck, Edward Beck, Lorraine Frey, Eleanor Dilts, Patty Ann Hager, and Nellie Coulton.
Services: Services will be held at a later date, at the convenience of the family. Harry's arrangements have been entrusted to Cantelmi Long Funeral Home, Bethlehem. A memory tribute may be made at cantelmifuneralhome.com.
Contributions: In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made in Harry's name to the Alzheimer's Association, www.alz.org
