William “Will” Carl Becker, 57, passed away
unexpectedly on Tuesday, July 14, 2026, in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He was the son of the late Hasso and Hanna
(Meyer) Becker, born on October 23, 1968, in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Will obtained his bachelor’s degree in
history at the University of Cincinnati. He soon went to flying school and
became a commercial airline pilot. Will flew for just over 30 years and most
recently was proudly employed at Delta Air Lines, one of the most trusted
airlines in the world. He was the rock
of his family, bringing the same steady, dependable presence to his home that
he did to his cockpit as a Delta pilot. At 57, his greatest joy wasn’t
navigating the skies but raising his 16-year-old son and sharing an
unbreakable, lifelong bond with his devoted wife, Anne. As a husband, he loved
Anne fiercely and treated her with deep respect, always making her feel
cherished through every season of their life together. Whether having
father/son vacations to Siesta Key and Lake Tahoe, or finding every local
chocolatier during layovers for Anne, Will was a truly exceptional dad and
partner whose warmth and dedication defined his family’s world. He loved cars
and guns! He was a truly avid firearms enthusiast and enjoyed classic cars and
fast cars. His presence will be missed
by all who knew and loved him.
He is preceded in death by his parents,
Hasso and Hanna Becker; sister, Susanne Becker, and a very special, feline
furry mistress, Miss Kitty, who adored Will.
Those left here to mourn his great loss are
his best friend and loving wife, Anne (Matthews) Becker; son, Walter Becker;
brother and sister-in-law, Dean and Susan Becker; brother-in-law, Greg
Jowaisas; nieces Anna Jowaisas and Rachel Becker; nephew Stefan Becker; his
lazy cat companions, Scatter, Smokey Bones, Babe Cat, and Oreo, and a host of
friends and great co-workers at Delta and Endeavor.
A Visitation will be held on Friday, July
24, 2026, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at Linnemann Funeral Home in Burlington, KY.
(1940 Burlington Pike, Burlington, KY 41005).
