Beckwith

Joseph A. Beckwith, 68, of Cranberry Township, passed away unexpectedly Friday, July 3, 2026.

Born Feb. 21, 1958, in Pittsburgh, he was the son of Joanne (Silvio) Beckwith and the late Edward Beckwith.

Joey held his faith in God close to his heart and was a parishioner at Divine Grace Parish, St. Ferdinand Catholic Church, in Cranberry Township. He was a naturally gifted musician who played piano and taught himself how to play the accordion. He also had a beautiful singing voice.

Joey was also an amazing artist who painted and held his own showcases of his artwork. He was also an avid gardener and a wonderful chef who prepared all kinds of food. Above all, Joey loved selflessly and took great care of his family, especially his mother, Joanne. He cherished the time he spent with his beloved nephews. He will be dearly missed and fondly remembered by all who knew him.

In addition to his mother, Joanne, he is survived by his brother, Edward Beckwith; his sister, Lynne (Amir “Bizhan”) Ranayhossaini; his nephews, Benjamin (Anna), Daniel (Lindsey) and Nicholas (Taryn); and three great-nephews, David, who was Joey’s beloved godson, Cyrus and Darius.
