Dearest Martha, Candy and family.

I love you!!  And I am so sorry for missing the services (I was ill), but so thankful I was able to see you, dear Martha, with Jack and Candy altogether one last time on this side of Heaven...there will be a never-ending time for us all to visit on the other side!  

I have so many memories of us all together at Waynedale...too many to share here...  Memories of choir practices, plays, painting backdrops, running out of paint, Jack making a run for more—sewing costumes, watching our kids grow, working together in vacation bible schools, cooking meals for Wednesday night visitation, the sleep-overs in the basement for the youth group.  You Jack, and Martha made such great youth leaders, such impression makers for Waynedale's kids...remember when Eric and Jeff Hanks slipped out of the church, Martha? LOL  

Jack, you were either in, or played a part,  in everyone of these events--cheering us on, singing your heart out, and most importantly-- making us laugh!  You will be missed by so many, Jack...

You, Martha and of course our wonderful pastor Brother Kemp worked so well as a team; and buddy that team will forever be in my heart and the hearts of my children.    

And Jack, one last thing: You were such an anchor for us all: for your family, your pastor, his church, your co-workers, your friends—we found strength & Godly-wisdom in knowing you.  Thank you!! 

Keep the light on my dear friend, and brother in Christ for we will all be coming home!!!

My deepest Sympathy, and may our Heavenly Father fill your hearts with the joy and laughter  found in  the loving memories you have shared.

I thought a lot of Jack and considered him a great friend. I will miss our talks when you all visited North Carolina. We had a lot in common. We both worked in substations for our respective power companies and had a lot of stories to share and most important we both love the Lord. So sorry for your loss

Martha and family, Jack was a great man not only to to you his family,  but to everyone he ever met. He will be missed but not forgotten. He is with the Lord. Praise the Lord. 


Martha, Candy and family....we were saddened to hear of Jack’s passing. We have been praying for your family and will continue since these next weeks and months will be difficult. May our Lord comfort your hearts. 

What a great (too many words to describe) friend and co-worker. You will be missed by many.

Dear Martha and Candy, and family,

How difficult this all must be on you.  I am so sorry for your loss of Jack in your daily lives.  Thankfully, I know you have not lost him in your hearts.  Just take one step at a time, and one day at a time.  With the help of the Good Lord, each day will get more doable.  Jack Beckman is a faithful servant of God and others, and we, the church and his family and friends, will surely miss him!  I sure enjoyed his visits and singing, and admired how devoted he was to the church and the bus ministry, and bringing kids to Christ. You are all in my heart and prayers.  
In Christian love,
Frances D. Hughes

I first met Jack in about 1982 when we worked on the installation of Northeastern's new SCADA system. I'm sorry that I can't get to Jack's calling as I have a story I'd like to relate in person. It makes me laugh to this day (if you know the participants). Jack's boss, Phil, had sent us out to a sub to change some of the wiring to a remote terminal unit. Jack asked me if we should power it down first. I replied "No, It's an easy procedure. What could go wrong?"  Well, there was a brief flash. Immediately, Phil was calling Jack on the radio to find out why the remote crashed. Without a moment of hesitation, Jack pushed the mic in my face saying "YOU talk to him ! 
We probably only saw each other a couple of times a year but over those years I certainly came to consider Jack a great business friend and just a great person. I will miss him !

Jack was so kind to visit me in the hospital, and nursing home recently. We laughed and talked about our family and friends and his love for them was evident. He was great company, I will miss him, along with all of his Waynedale Baptist Family.

I had the pleasure of working with Jack occasionally for over 30 years as an inspector for Northeastern REMC.  He was always a bright spot in my day, and was more than happy to share his knowledge.   Even after he retired, he was a valuable source  of information, and I called on him a couple of times when I wanted the best possible information available. He always had a smile on his face, and will be be greatly missed.


Jack was a true friend to so many! He wasn't about self he was about showing the love of Jesus! He loved people! He loved his wife, daughter and grands! He loved WBC!  He gave his life for the cause of Christ! I grieve for his family but I rejoice through tears for him! We will miss you Jack.....untill we meet again! Thank you God for men like Jack!

Sending my condolences from all of us at Spyros Pancake house. We all adored waiting on him. I especially loved having conversations with him, even if it was just a few minutes here and there. Sending love and support to his wife and family. You will be missed. 

Jack was the most wonderful and giving friend. Jack and Martha have helped me throughout the years. Especially with the loss of my husband Walt. Visiting me and transporting me,  boy will he be missed by me and the whole Wayendale Baptist Church Family. Love Deb Rommel

My husband Randy always talks about Martha and Jack passing Red Hots on the couch like 2 kids in love. 

Appreciate the years of friendship and the memories of good times shared together. Martha, you are a Blessing and we are thankful for both of you.  

Though I  was not a member of Waynesdale Church, I will remember  how friendly he was when I attended services with my brother. Jack always made sure to welcome me and make me feel at ease. He definitely will be missed by his family and his church family.

Jack touched the hearts of many. He was such a kind and tender person. His example of being a true Christian, led many people to accepting their own salvation. After we left Fort Wayne, I’ve often thought about Jack and Martha, and how their faithful presence at WBC had made such an impression on me. 
My sincerest condolences to Martha and Candy. I know they will miss him so much but I rejoice knowing that they are both secure in their faith knowing that they will see him again. 


you  will be missed by all.  Rest In Heaven ❤️  Love the Brock Girls


Sending our love and prayers to all.  Jack was a super guy that helped our family in more ways than one. He always had a smile and a warm welcome, never met a stranger. 
I know our family will always be grateful for his kind heart. 

Jack was a wonderful man whom always showed compassion for the lord and to so many people as well! He always made sure he spoke to you whenever we seen him! He will be missed so glad we was part of his life when we was in ft Wayne! Thoughts and prayers are with you all!Love Tish & John Bishop

Jack was a Godly man , he always had a smile on his face and was so friendly to all he was around! I know this man is in heaven tonight.

Heaven is Happier now because the laughter of Jack Beckman fills the Holy Hallways!  Jack was a True Servant Deacon,  and he was always willing to do whatever task that needed  doing in Waynedale Baptist Church.  Peggy and I send our Love and Sympathy to Martha and Candy and the entire family.  Many souls in Heaven will come up to Brother Jack and say “Thank you for giving to the Lord; I am a life that was changed!”  Thank You Jack Beckman!

In 2018 I was hospitalized for Pulmonary Embolism's (Blood clots) in the lower part of my lungs. My icc nurse came in & told me I had a visitor. She told me his name & I was confused. I didn't know who he was until he told her he was from my best friends church. I told her he was welcome to come in. This man had came to talk and pray with me without even knowing me. That's one thing that I will always remember about that hospital stay and I'll  forever be thankful to him for that. My Prayers go out to his family, friends & church family 💗

1986 Jack and Martha knocked on our door and invited us to Waynedale Baptist Church. I wish I had been more faithful back then. But I love my church family and Jack was there for me and my girls. I will always be grateful. Til we meet again.....

I don’t even know where to begin. Martha and Jack were such a large part of my teenage life serving as our youth leaders at Waynedale. They were even Best man and Matron of honor at our wedding. I could always count on a hug and kiss on the cheek from Jack anytime we would see him. Martha and Candy we are so sorry for your loss and shed tears with you even tho we know he is rejoicing in heaven. May our sweet Lord comfort you at this time. 

Martha, Candi, and family, 

We are so sad to hear about Jack.   He had a special place in our hearts and always loved on us when we were there!!  Praying for you guys!!  Resting in the fact we will all be together soon!!  We love you all!!  

Jack was a wonderful person and a man that took his religion to the next level and a great music director for all the congregation. He never knew a stranger. He will be missed by a lot of people. Amen 

Jack was a constant source of encouragement and a joy to be around. He always knew how to fix things both physically and spiritually. I loved having his steadiness on the worship team. You will be missed! Love to Martha and family.

I will ALWAYS remember my uncle Jack leading our prayers at all of our family functions. He always made sure to pray for EVERYONE it was always perfect. I will ALWAYS remember him always supporting Aunt Martha at ALL times. I will miss ALL the stories and memories he enjoyed sharing about my dad. Uncle Jack would always make me laugh during any conversation. I will miss his hugs and kisses and concerns of how life is going and how I'm doing at work. I believe God needed my Uncle Jack more than we did, and my Uncle Jack was more than glad to serve his creator.  Love, Shawnie, Doug and Devon


Waynedale Baptist Church won't be the same .......The most precious memory I have of Jack is from 2009 ... I had had my Laryngectomy a few months prior because of vocalcord  cancer ..it was my first time back to church in a few months..l was nervous yet so very happy to be back..l chose to sit in the last pew ..as the choir sang and the congregation joined in I too sang/silently but with all my heart ...Jack was choir director and at the end of service he came directly to me and gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek and whispered to me through his tears that he saw me singing and even though no word's were heard by anyone in church ...he said he knew the Heavenly Angel's heard me and were rejoicing ! Then my tear's started ...Thank You Jack for saying those most precious and most meaningful word's to me. Rest gently my friend... Next time we meet it will be in Heaven and we will join the Angel's and sing  together ! 

Martha and Candy , we are so sorry for your loss of Jack. We remember him as being such a gentleman. He was thoughtful and kind. May the Lord give you peace and understanding as you go through the days ahead without him. 

Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Martha, Candy, and all. We had the privilege of knowing Jack , as one of our daily “McDonald’s family ” members...we feel fortunate to have witnessed how he blessed so many . We know how much he loved all of you and how he loved the Lord.  We will miss him dearly.    
Love, to all of you, Jorja & Steve Smith

 Always enjoyed you and Jack so much. Prayers for you and the family at this time   Love Becky Morris Oswald

Martha, Candy and family - My deepest and most heartfelt condolences.  Jack was a blessing and inspiration to everyone who was fortunate to have known him. Holding you all close in thought and prayer.
