Christian was born August 31, 2006 in Springfield, Illinois, the son of Rachel M. Pace and Robert J. Beckler Jr. Christian was easily named the life of the party. He was always 10 toes down for anyone, at anytime, for anything.
Christian was the most spontaneous, wholehearted, charismatic, ornery kid we knew. He had great passion for cars, trucks, dirt bikes, four-wheelers; if you name something he could tell you all about it. Can’t forget spinning those tires on anything and everything he could. You could always find him where the music was loud, the food was good, the drinks were cold, and right in the middle of all his favorite people. Christian had a laugh that is hard to forget and was so contagious, he always had everyone around him laughing til their stomachs ached. All in all, Christian was the go-to guy, the right-hand man; always there as fast as possible. Also had love for his momma like no other.
Christian was navigating through life and got an opportunity to work at John L. Lewis Concrete Construction Inc. He had early mornings and long days but always had a good time doing what he was doing, normally with a smile:)
Christian is forever loved and will always be remembered by; his father, Robert Beckler Jr.; Brothers, Robert “Robbie” (Hannah) Beckler III and Trenton Beckler; Sisters, Tara (Sabastin) Williams, Taylor (Zachary) Watson, Teryn Beckler and Gracelyn Beckler; Grandparents, Rita and Mark Miller, Dudley Pace & Pam and Larry Molt; Aunt, Renee (Kirk) Kruenegel; Uncles, Lance (Teneale) Molt, Chance (Katie) Molt; Nieces, Kendra, Hadley, Navey Jo and Shae; Nephews, Carson, Noah, Elijah, Wyade, and Zachary; and many cousins & countless friends
Christian is preceded in death by his mother, Rachel Pace; uncle, Steven Arnold; and last but certainly not least; Christian is also laid to rest with 3 of his closest people, Wesley, Cruz and Josiah.
