Frederick Nathaniel Beckwith Jr.

FREDERICK NATHANIEL BECKWITH JR. was born on May 12, 1973 in Baltimore, Maryland to Rosmarie Erika Beckwith and Frederick Nathaniel Beckwith Sr. Frederick was known affectionately to many of his friends as “Freddie” or “Fred,” but to his family he was affectionately known as just “Frederick.” Frederick attended Calvin Rodwell Elementary School, Woodlawn Middle School and received his high school diploma from Woodlawn Senior High School in 1991. He then went on to complete a two year program at RETS School of Technology. Frederick Was very loving and kind with a heart of gold. He cared very deeply for others. This part of his personality was easily seen by how his nieces and nephews and great-nieces and great-nephews were so drawn to him and loved to be in his company. Frederick also had a super funny dry humor that would leave your stomach hurting with laughter. He loved to cook as well as eat. Crabs were his absolute favorite. He would spend almost and hour dissecting and savoring just one crab, even the little claws; truly enjoying it. As sensitive as Frederick could be, he had a tremendous inner and outer strength. Most of the time you would never know when he was going through difficulties or experiencing pain and discomfort, because he would always manage to smile, interact with others, play games with the kids or enjoy a game of cards with his family. Frederick was also a man of God. Although he never publicly dedicated himself as a Jehovah's Witness, in his heart those were his beliefs and he felt that if anything should ever happen to him he would one day wake up to see his family again in Paradise on earth. On Monday, May 6, 2013 Frederick passed away. He leaves to cherish his memory: his father, Frederick Nathaniel Beckwith Sr.; his mother, Rosmarie Erika Beckwith; two sisters, Glenda Elaine Mickle and Erika Beckwith Johnson; one brother-in-law, Christopher Gerald Mickle; three nephews, Christopher Frederick Mickle, Antonio Manuel Johnson Jr. and Dante' Lee Williams; one niece, Candice Marie Mallory; one niece (in-law), Camille Mickle; one nephew (in-law), Ricky Mallory; one great-niece, Tristyn Avonna Mickle; one great-nephew, Kayden Antonio Johnson; two honorary nieces, Kiara Griffin (aka Booda) and Tracy Chatman; three honorary brothers, Keith Alexander Scott, Bareaster Lee Williams (aka B.O.) and Antonio Manuel Johnson Sr. (aka Smokey); as well as uncles, aunts, cousins and a host of close friends who Frederick held dear to his heart.
