Mr. Beck and Doug, I am sorry to hear about Mrs. Beck. I will always remember Mrs. Beck as her picture in the obituary, with her wonderful smile. A lovely lady and always with the smile and a hello when we would meet on Brewster Dr just two doors down from our house. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Mr. Beck, Doug and family.
