Warner Rogers "HAWK" Beckett

Warner Rogers "Hawk" Beckett was born on January 26, 1954 to the late Chester A. Beckett and Annie J. Ramirez in Winter Garden, Florida.

Hawk was a bright spot in every life he touched, living with a style and energy all his own. Whether showing off his natural athleticism or pulling up in one of his signature rides, like his green Mustang 5.0, he moved through the world at full throttle-usually decked out in Miami Hurricanes gear and a clean pair of Converse. However, beyond the cool cars and sports, Hawk's true legacy was his massive heart. A man of immense generosity and devotion to his family, he ensured there was never a dull moment. He was quite simply everyone's 'favorite'. His light was as bright as his spirit, and his legacy of joy will never fade.

Warner was preceded in death by his: Father Chester A. Beckett, Sr.; Mother Annie J. Ramirez; Step-Father Oscar Ramirez Sr.; Step-Mother Mary Bridges Beckett; Brothers Chester Beckett Jr. and Chezell Beckett; Special Cousin Gary Garner; and Beloved Son Patrick Beckett. He was also preceded in death by his grandparents and a host of aunts, uncles, and cousins throughout the years.
