Harley Beckner Obituary

Harley Lacy Beckner

July 9, 1963 - August 13, 2024

Harley Beckner (Harless) 61, of Walkertown, NC, passed away on August 13, 2024 at the Kate B. Reynolds Hospice Home, in Winston Salem, NC from liver cancer-disease. Harley was the fifth of six children, born July 9, 1963 in Alexandria, VA to Hershell LeRoy and Bobbie Sue Britten Beckner. Harley enjoyed being outdoors and looked forward to trout season and swimming in the creek during his early years on Wolf Creek, VA (Grapefield). His teen years and into his 20s were spent in Calvert County, MD. Sometime in the early 1990's, Harley moved to Houston, TX. In 2012, Harley moved to North Carolina. He was outgoing and spoke to everyone, always a yes ma'am, and no sir. He enjoyed holiday cookouts and country music, especially Willie Nelson and he always ended his goodbyes with, "I Love You More" to everyone he cared for. Harley worked in various fields of construction, from drywall mechanic to roofing and carpentry. During his time in TX, he also worked on an oil rig. He enjoyed watching things grow, and was big on keeping the grass maintained. Harley leaves behind a daughter, Nikki (Nicole) Siske (Brad); along with three grandchildren, Gavin, Brody, and Mia Siske of the Annapolis area in MD. Harley also leaves behind his mother, Bobbie Sue Beckner of Florida. He was preceded in death by his dad, Hershell LeRoy Beckner; paternal grandparents, Harless LeRoy and Flora Lee Kidd Beckner; and maternal grandparents, Lacy Cubine Sr and Olga Lake Kidd Britten. Harley leaves behind three sisters and two brothers, which includes Kirk Beckner (Donna) of Clearwater, FL, Moquieta Beckner (Mike Eppard) of Kernersville, NC, Sabrina Notter, of Daytona Beach, FL, Michael Beckner Sr of Walkertown, NC and Sonya Beckner (Jose Galindez Tovar, partner) of Daytona Beach, FL. He leaves behind many friends, cousins, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews, as well as great aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews, all too many to count. We love and will miss you, Harley.
