Edgar Lee Beck, 69, of Pearland, Texas, went to be with the Lord on April 3, 2026. He was born on August 25, 1956, in Houston, Texas.

He was well respected for his knowledge, experience, and the way he treated others, earning him numerous awards and recognition for his achievements.

He is survived by his wife of 33 years, Janet Beck; his children, Mary Elizabeth Beck, Robert “Bobby” Beck and his wife Cristina, Ryan Miller Beck, Jonathan “Jonny” Beck; his granddaughter, Paige House; his sister, Rae Larson and her husband Tommy; his brother James Beck and his wife Celia; his mother-in-law Jean Kubin; his sisters-in-law, Sheri Kubin and Joanie Flores; his brothers in-law, James Kubin and George Flores.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Barbara Beck and James Beck; his grandparents, William “Gramps” Miller and Margaret “Granny” Miller, and James and Lana Beck; and his infant sister Marie Anne e Beck; and his father-in-law, James Kubin. He will be deeply missed and always remembered by those who knew and loved him.
