Pedestrian Struck And Killed On New Chemstrand

May 7, 2010

A pedestrian was struck and killed late Thursday night in Pensacola. He was hit by three vehicles.

The Florida Highway Patrol says Billy G. Beck, 23, of Pensacola, was walking northbound on the paved portion of New Chemstrand Road just south of 10 Mile Road when he was struck by a northbound vehicle. That vehicle fled the scene.

Beck was then struck by the front undercarriage of  vehicle driven by Devin J. Poe, 18, of Cantonment. Poe and  passenger in his vehicle, Joshua F. Valentine, 18, of Pensacola, were not injured.

A third vehicle, driven by Julian J. Donato, 24, of Pace, then struck Beck.

Charges are pending the outcome of the investigation, according to the FHP.

The FHP said they have no information or description of the vehicle that fled the scene. Anyone with information about the crash is asked to contact Cpl. Michael J. Tucker at the Florida Highway Patrol Station in Pensacola, (850) 484-5000 ext.331.

    I don’t actually know who Billy is much but I have heard a lot about him from his cousin Christopher. He seemed like a great guy. Billy I am sorry for what happened I truly am. Your cousin misses you so much. So Billy just letting you know your cousin misses and loves you.

    Rest in Peace Billy. G. Beck

    I just want to say that I have lived in this area for the past five years. This street is dangerous. No sidewalks, barely any street lights. I have had to walk down this road many times and there are some drivers that pay more attention to their phones, radios, or whatever and ended up off the road. I no longer walk with my back to traffic but still don’t feel safe. If you choose to opeate a vehicle, do so responsibly because you don’t just risk your life but the lives of everyone around you. PEOPLES LIVES SHOULDN’T HAVE TO BE CUT SHORT FOR STUPIDITY! And as far as the first driver goes. You shouldn’t have a license if you can’t pay attention.

    Hey My Lil Bill

    Thinking of you all the time. I see your face everyday through my eyes and my
    mind. We really miss you. And your whole family wants to Thank You from the bottom of OUR HEARTS FOR THE MESSAGES & VIDEO YOU SENT TO ME ON MY CELLPHONE. We thought it was a joke at 1st, but there was no text online with our telephone company & when I called them they could not find anything either nor could they find my phone texted back to my phone SO MY SON WE ALL BELIEVE IN YOUR HOME WHERE YOU USE TO LIVE AT WITH YOUR FAMILY WE DO BELIEVE THAT IT WAS YOU & GOD SENT THOSE MESSAGES TO MY PHONE. THEY WILL BE SAVED ON MY PHONE FOREVER. WE WILL ALWAYS TREASURE THAT FOREVER OUR SON. I WILL BE HONORED TO SHOW PROOF TO ANYONE WHO DONT BELIEVE ME ABOUT THE VIDEO ALSO. We were promised a few things after you left us, but we are sure we wont get them, but it’s ok baby I dont need those things. It would have been nice, but I will take care of the things that were promised to me. Lil Bill, you see what’s going on & you know that MOTHER’S AND FATHER’S KNOWS BEST FOR ALL OF THEIR CHILDREN AND I KNOW IN MY HEART AND YOUR HEART THAT THIS IS WHAT YOU TRULY WANTED IN THE LONG RUN. If she truly thought about how she acted instead of acting out she would have realized she was wrong. I have found out so many lies that she has told us as well, as you my son that she lied too. There is no since in lying that just causes problems and bad feelings. She can try to convience herself all she wants that’s fine THAT IS HER RIGHT AS A HUMAN BEING. ONCE AGAIN MY LIL BILL, YOU DID NOT WANT THOSE TWO PEOPLE TOGETHER FOR 1 SECOND BY THEMSELVES WHEN YOU WERE ALIVE AND THERE IS NOTHING ON THIS EARTH SHE CAN SAY TO ANY OF YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS THAT YOU WOULD ACCEPT HER AND HIM TO BE TOGETHER AFTER YOU DIED. “THERE IS ALOT OF PEOPLE THAT KNEW YOU SON AND THAT STILL LOVES YOU NOW.” I don’t care what people say or think about any of us, BUT WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT A MOTHER KNOWS WHAT HER CHILDREN ALWAYS WANTS IN LIFE WHEN THEY ARE LIVING & WHEN THEY DIE AND I KNOW IN MY HEART THAT YOU TRULY WANTED HER HERE WITH US BECAUSE YOU KNOW IN YOUR HEART AND SOUL THAT WE TREATED LIKE OUR DAUGHTER AND MY SON THAT IS WHAT HURTS THE MOST. THIS IS FOR ANYBODY WHO MIGHT READ THIS LISTEN TO THIS! WHERE WOULD YOU WANT YOUR CHILD’S GIRLFRIEND OR BOYFRIEND TO BE IF YOUR CHILD HAD DIED WITH HIS FAMILY OR WITH BE HIS FRIENDS 1ST AND THEN BECAME FRIENDS WITH HER. I’M SORRY, BUT I KNOW WHAT MOTHER’S AND FATHER’S WOULD WANT BECAUSE I AM A MOTHER. BELIEVE IT OR NOT I STILL LOVE YOU JLM BUT YOU MADE THE WORST DECISION OF YOUR LIFE AND I AM TRULY SORRY ABOUT THAT. I HOPE AND PRAY THAT ONE DAY, YOU WILL SEE WHERE I AM COMING FROM AND I STILL LOVE YOU JLM. I’VE ALWAYS TOLD YOU THE TRUTH I’VE NEVER LIED TO YOU ABOUT ANYTHING. OKAY, SHE WANTS TO SAY WE ARE THE GREEDY ONE WILL WHO WAS GREEDY ONE THAT TOOK EVERYTHING OUT OF YOUR ROOM, SO WHAT SHE COULD BE CLOSE TO YOU I KNOW WHEN I LOSE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE OUR BED THAT WE SHARED WOULD BE THE CLOSEST THING TO YOU THAT I WOULD HAVE BECAUSE IT HAD YOUR SMELL ALL OVER IT, BUT SHE COULD NOT SLEEP IN THAT BED AFTER YOU WENT TO THE ALMIGHTY GOD JESUS CHRIST BUT SHE SURE WANTED THAT BED & HER’S & YOUR CAR THAT NIGHT WE HAD THE MEMORIAL FOR YOU. SHE THOUGHT WE WOULD DESTROY YOUR THINGS YOU KNOW AND JLM KNOWS WE NEVER DESTROYED ANYTHING OF YOUR’S (HA HA LIL BILL YOU DESTROYED THINGS THAT BELONGS TO US & YOU KNOW THAT) THERE IS PEOPLE WHO WILL PULL THE WOOL OVER PEOPLES EYES BUT IN TIME THEY WILL SEE PEOPLE TRUE COLORS, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT MY BABY I STILL LOVE EVERYBODY EVEN THE PEOPLE I DONT KNOW BECAUSE I AM SUPPOSED TO BY GOD I DONT HATE ANYBODY AND NEVER WILL. LIL BILL AKA SUPERMAN” YOU ARE MY ANGEL I WILL BE STRONG LIKE YOU SAID ON MY PHONE BUT I AM SORRY THAT I WILL STILL CRY OVER YOU BECAUSE I AM YOUR LOVING MOTHER AND WILL BE THAT TIL THE DAY I DIE. HEY, SON THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE SIGNS THAT YOU GAVE TO US THAT YOU ARE HAPPY WERE YOU ARE AT. PLEASE WATCH OVER AUSTIN AT THIS TIME AS WELL ALL OF US. WE LOVE YOU WITH EVERY FIBER OF OUR BODIES. YOU ARE MY 1ST BORN SON AND YOU REALLY HAVE MADE BOTH MOM AND DAD AND YOUR (2) BROTHERS REALLY TRYLY HAPPY IN OUR HEARTS THRU OUT OUR LIVES ON THIS EARTH. I KNOW IN MY HEART THAT WHAT MOM AND DAD IS GOING THRU WILL TAKE A VERY LONG TIME TO GET OVER YOU WERE & WILL ALWAYS BE OUR PRECIOUS 1ST BORN SON BILLY GLYNN BECK III (THE TERD) HA HA. YOU ARE OUR LIL BILL AKA SUPERMAN FOR ALL OF OUR LIVES THAT WE HAVE LEFT ON THIS WORLD. WE WILL BE PLACING SOMETHING BY THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE I LAST SEEN YOUR BODY I KNOW ITS NOT ALOT BUT I KNOW THAT YOU WILL BE HAPPY AND PROUD OF US FOR DOING THIS IN REMEMBRANCE OF YOU.

    Our son we will always love you forever & ever. We are truly proud & honored to have had you in our lives for 23yrs 10ms & 27 days. We cry everyday for you, but we do know that you are in a better place now. I know that you are looking down upon us & you see everything that is going on in our lives & this world. There is nothing stronger than a Mother’s Love For Her Children & I know in my Heart & Soul that what has been going on since the Almighty God brought you to his manison I KNOW THAT YOU ARE PROUD OF US FOR BEING THE KIND OF PARENTS WE ARE AND DOING WHAT IS RIGHT BY YOU. I truly hope & pray that they find the person who did this to you my son, but if mommy & daddy dont see this in our life time we will find out when we see you again. MAY GOD KEEP YOU AND BLESS YOU MY PRECIOUS SON MY LIL BILL AKA SUPERMAN. REMEMBER MY SON EVERYBODY IN THIS WORLD WILL HAVE TO ANSWER TO GOD JESUS CHRIST. I am truly sorry that some people can only see one side of the story but there is always 2 sides to every story, but she will always be a part of me I am truly hurt by this situation but i can & do forgive her for the reason you brought her into our lives AND I THANK YOU FOR THAT. I will talk to somebody this evening & see what was told to us last night if that was true & convience this person to talk to the one who did this to us & get him to turn himself in. I never had to do anything like this before I have grandparents that had past away but you kids are supposed to out live us parents BUT GOD WANTED YOU MORE THAN US AND I HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT AND I DO. REST IN PEACE MY SON. We both have a empty hole in our heart, but I know day we will all be together as a FAMILY FOREVER. YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER MY PRECIOUS SON WE WILL TRULY MISS YOU. I can keep on writing but I know we will talk to you daily my son. You are forever mine.

    WITH ALL OF OUR LOVE,
    MOMMA,DADDY,VICTOR & DESIREE ,AND AUSTIN BECK

    Northbound traffic had to stop on Pauline street (not far from this accident) the other day when I came down it. A young man was walking on the side and would not move over for oncoming traffic. His face flashed in my mind when I read this story.
