So sorry to hear that he has passed on. Condolences to his family and friends. Dale and I worked for Beckwith in the Clarion area from 1972 until about 1995. He was a real help to me since he was so knowledgeable about both Cat machines and customers in the territory we served, he in the service end and I in machine sales. We got to be good friends and I got to know what a good family man he was. I’ll never forget him. God bless him!!

Alissa & Family, I want to extend my gratitude to you and your family. I understand what you do, you do every day and consider, it your job. You may not fully understand the impact you have in families lives because it is something you do every day. I lost a part of myself when my mom died, I could not think clearly, I could not pull myself together, I could not make decisions - without you, I would not have properly layed my mother to rest. You took the last part of my mothers' journey with us from January 11th until her final rest on January 15th you watched with us and made the journey possible. I can not merely say Thank-you, it isn't enough. And I cannot with words express my gratitude for your unconditional friendship with Nickolas. He is my baby boy, my rock, my heart. He is your life long friend. Again, you walked beside him and made it possible to give his grandmother a proper burial. I will never be able to show you my gratitude for all that you have done. I can merely say thank you - God has Blessed you with an abundance of kindness and compassion for others. Thank you, Alissa and your family for taking care of my mom and for loving Nick. Your family is a Blessing. Sabrena & the Family of Kate Reitz
