The Bakersfield Californian 
Beckwith, George Willis     
1911 - 2005 
 
George Willis Beckwith 
Dec. 25, 1911 - Dec. 12, 2005 

Mass of Christian Burial will be held Today, December 15, 2005, at 10:00 a.m., 
at St. Josephs Catholic Church. Father Ricardo Magdaleno will officiate and 
interment will follow at Hillcrest Memorial Park. George was born on the 
family ranch outside of Tipton, in Tulare County, December 25, 1911. He 
graduated from Kern County Union High School and Bakersfield College. In 1938, 
he married the Love of his life, Margaret Jacobs. George began his career with 
Southern Pacific Railroad in Los Angeles. In 1944, he returned to Bakersfield 
to raise his family. Pops loved the outdoors, his garden and most of all he 
loved Mom. The two of them walking hand in hand will be a memory forever. 
George made sure that his children were educated through Catholic schools, and 
he was always there to make sure that his family could grow in the Church. He 
would take his wife to the alter guild whenever she wanted to go. George is 
predeceased by his wife of 67 years, Margaret; his sister, Avis and brother, 
Robert. He is survived by his sons, Gerald and wife, Terry; Michael and wife, 
Stephanie; grandchildren, Jason and Anicia, Jennifer, Sarah and C.J., Carrie 
and Sean and Cristine. We want to send a special thank you to Bayly, and Irene 
Flemming for their loving care and friendship. Donations may be made to Garces 
Memorial High School or to a charity of your choice.
