Jack L. Beck

Jack Lee Beck, age 87, Navy Veteran, passed away on Saturday, August 15, 2020. Since he retired from Cessna after 40 plus years he had more time for his hobbies which were building Navy ships, 5 to 10 feet long, using plans and balsa wood. He liked building airplanes, and constructing buildings for his numerous size railroads from N scale to his Garden Railroad. He was always willing to help others and only asked that they helped someone in return. He enjoyed spending time with his kids playing trains, watching a ball game, talking and joking around with us. After a few days he would tell us, with a smirk on his face, not sure what your plans are but tomorrow is a good day to leave.” Even though he will be greatly missed and he is where he wants to be , with Mom, we can say with a smirk on our faces ”dad not sure what your plans are but it is time to leave.” Preceded in death by his loving wife of 33 years Marlene, granddaughter Emily Rose Lennon, son-in-law Ken Morse and sister-in-law Joyce Beck.
