Joanna Mae Beckwith passed from this earth on 8 Sept. after a six year battle with brain cancer. Joanna attended North Enid Grade School and graduated from Carrier High School in 1980.

She was preceded in death by her Father Donald Ray Beckwith, her Grandparents, Austin “Polly” and Peggy Beckwith, Jan and Johanna Knapper and Aubrey and Helen Berry, her Aunt Lillian Pope and her Uncle Fred Duane Berry.
She is survived by her Mother Anneke Knapper Beckwith, her Aunt Susanna Knapper Berry, cousins Jon and Keith Berry, her Aunt Linda Berry Smith, Uncle Charles Smith and cousins Audra Arr and Michael Wurth.
