Obituary of William C. Beshaw

William C. (Bill) Beshaw, (Bop to his grandkids), entered into eternal rest on December 20, 2020, at Millard Fillmore Suburban Hospital after a courageous battle with the Wuhan virus.  He was born on February 8, 1941, the son of Charles Beshaw and Helen Hausman of Lockport, NY.

Bill was a member of St. John the Baptist Roman Catholic Church in Lockport, NY.  He was a graduate of Lockport High School and Erie County Community College.  He worked at Harrison Radiator for over three decades, including leading the safety department.  He enjoyed spending time with his friends, was a patriot, lifelong Buffalo Bills fan and enjoyed traveling.  His ultimate joy was always his wife, Donna, and his family.

Bill is survived by his wife, Donna (Stoll), sons Bill (Denise), and Rob (Beth); daughters Jeanne Corrallo, Lynn Watier (Kevin), Denise Beshaw Ryan (Matt), and Caryn Beshaw Carroll; grandchildren Jessica, Amanda, Lauren, Claire, Corrinna, Shanleigh, Ben, Kellen, Ryan, Brenna, Meghan, Joshuah, Jadyn, Kiarra and Jack; and great grandchildren Stella, Keegan, Nora, Hannah, Noah and Hadley, sister Janice Litz (Mike), Betty Stoll, and several wonderful nieces, nephews and many dear friends.
