My father is gone and that fact is incomprehensible to me. He just seemed like a man who could overcome every hardship life threw him. Born at the end of WWI, he overcame the dire poverty of the depression to lead an amazing life filled with love, travels all over the world and a teaching job he loved. He survived WWII and the TB he contracted. He survived cancer twice, but I guess he was just too tired to fight this last battle. In the last days of his life he wanted to see his mother again and I just know he is up in Heaven with her now and with all the friends and family who have gone before him. Heaven's gain is our loss. My father was our rock. He was a wonderful husband to my mother and a wonderful dad to my sister and I. His 7 grandchildren adored him. He spent such quality time with all his 7 gumbatsos and was thrilled that 4 of them followed him into teaching. It didn't hurt that he indoctrinated them from age 3 that teaching was the best choice for a career. My dad was also a very proud great grandpa to 8 little boys. Although he had seen dozens of pictures of the littlest one, Sean, he didn't get to meet the baby until the day before he died. My dad made friendships that literally lasted a lifetime. Two of his best friends, Calvin and Roo were friends since the third grade. I used to tell him that he had a "good" six months and a "bad" six months. The good six months were when Joan and Charlie Cormier were in Florida and the bad six months were when they went back to Cape Cod. He loved playing cards with them and counted them among his very best friends. My sister, Vivian, found handwritten lyrics of an old song our father copied some time ago. The words are You're the cream in my coffee You're the salt in my stew You will always be my necessity I'll be lost without you These lyrics sum up how we feel about my dad. But I know I can just think about you, Dad, and you'll be right there every time I need you. Peace be with you. We love you.

Mr. Beckett came into my world via Meals On Wheels. I have been delivering Meals to him and his lovely wife for 3 years with my co volunteer Beth Oakley. I always enjoyed talking to Dan regarding current events. I fondly remember his talented skills at making spaghetti sauce it smelled so good. My thoughts and prayers are with Mrs.Beckett and her family.

We extend deepest condolences to the family of Dan Beckett. We met Dan at the commissary on Friday mornings having coffee with his friend Ted. Dan was always upbeat and we not only discussed current happenings, but what we thought was wrong with the world and how if we were asked, to fix it. He was always smiling and spoke of his family and how proud he was of them. He will be missed and we will keep his chair empty in his memory Roni Bannister and Betty Geyer, members of the Friday morning koffee klatch

I'm not very good with computers,but when I saw this in Dan's obituary (which we should never have seen because we don't get the paper any day but Sunday and yet we had a paper on Friday!!??) I knew I wanted to try and do this. Dan ment alot to me growing up and I know he ment the world to dad. I only wish I had written down all the stories dad told me about the two of them. I especially remember how he said Dan and his family were always so nice and how Dan spent alot of time with dad's family. Friendships like that are very rare. I'm very happy that I could see and speak to Dan in those last few minutes and comfort you in knowing he wasn't alone. Kerry and I will miss celebrating Dan's life with all of you. We will catch up when we return from Alabama. God Bless and comfort you all. Love Nancy and Kerry
