Dahl George Bekker

August 15, 1937 - March 25, 2011

Dahl George Bekker, 73, of Wellington passed away at his home Friday, March 25, 2011.

He was born Aug. 15, 1937, in Logan, Utah, the son of George Bekker and LaVerne Rose.

He served in the U.S. Army during the Korean War and several years thereafter in the National Guard. He owned his own construction business in Hayward, Calif., until he moved to Carson City in 1976, where he later retired from the state of Nevada in 1999.

He treasured the time he spent with his family and enjoyed restoring classic vehicles, hunting and fishing. Dahl was a loving father and a loyal friend; he will be greatly missed.
