Here are some shots from the memorial for Gerry Beck (or simply Beck as his friends called him).
I’ve told people before that ask me to take birthday party/graduation/wedding photos that I try to take most pictures without people in them, (something I’ve grown to regret over the years) so I don’t have any good shots of the throngs (1000+) of people that turned out to say goodbye to “Beck”, but here are some of the birds that bind us that turned out help escort him to his next duty station.
Sorry it has taken so long to get around to sharing these with y’all…
