We met Craig through his daughter, Laura, who married our son. We were impressed by his knowledge, his love of Laura, his friendliness to us, and his generosity. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him. Sending prayers of peace and comfort to Lou, the three daughters, and other family members.

I worked with Craig's eldest daughter at Hartsdale Pet Cemetery & Crematory for over 20 years. After reading this obituary about Craig's wonderful, rich life, I now can see in Clarissa many of Craig's personality traits and values. Sending peace, comfort, love and heartfelt condolences to the Beck family.

Dear Family and Friends:
Our hearts go out to you and your family with the loss of your dear loved one. There are no words to take away sadness when you lose someone you love. In our time of deepest need the tenderness of God is a refuge like no other. He alone understands our sorrows and draws near in love to wipe away our tears.
When my mother passed away, we found the resurrection hope very comforting.
May the resurrection hope sustain you. A loved one lost can grieve the heart, and makes us yearn for tomorrow, when Jehovah will keep the promise he made of no pain, no death, no sorrow found at Revelation 21:4.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Mr Becks family.
Craig was one of my best teachers at Sheridan High School back in tbe 70s. He left a lasting impression on me that has been with me my entire life. His teaching style and personality was incredible. I was not a good student in school…Mr Beck got through to me! I will always be grateful for his lasting instruction. Thank you Dr Beck! RIP my friend. God bless.
