Thomas Beckett Obituary

Thomas Benjamin Beckett was born on December 4, 1971 to Lillie Beckett and the late Ronald Thomas Beckett of Princess Anne, Maryland. He departed this life on Sunday, August 2, 2015 at Peninsula Regional Medical Center in Salisbury, Maryland. Thomas was a graduate of Washington High School in 1990, and attended the University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) in the Hotel Restaurant Management (HRM) program. He had been readmitted to UMES and had one class left this fall to obtain his Bachelor’s degree. He was employed at Somerset Community Services as a House Supervisor and then went to overnight Counselor once he started dialysis. Thomas enjoyed spending time with family and friends here on the shore and in Baltimore. He played football with the Salisbury Stallions, coached the Tyrants and thoroughly loved and respected all of his football family. Thomas loved to fish or just sit by the water and spend time with his dog Bruce. He leaves to mourn his memory: his loving wife Beverly D. Beckett; his daughter Tonya S. Beckett and his mother Lillie Mae Beckett, all of Princess Anne, Maryland; his brother, Dewayne (Andrea) Beckett and nephew D.J. Beckett, all of Lilburn, Georgia; his father and mother-in-law, Tom "Pop" and Linda Fry of Westminster, Maryland; sister-in-law Amanda Fry of Betterton, Maryland and several aunts, uncles, cousins and a host of friends, co-workers and his football family. He was preceded in death by his father Ronald T. Beckett; grandmothers, Mary Cannon Hutt and Sadie M. Beckett; grandfathers, Albert Cottman, Sr. and Earl Beckett; uncle Doug Beckett and aunt Patricia Harrington. Lovingly Submitted ~ The Family
