   (12-03) 13:33 PST SAN FRANCISCO -- A motorcyclist who was struck   
   and killed by a car in San Francisco's Lower Haight neighborhood   
   was identified Tuesday as Bill Beckwith, a contractor and   
   carpenter who co-hosted the HGTV show "Curb Appeal."   
      
   Beckwith, 38, was hit by a car near the corner of Oak and   
   Steiner streets about 8:30 p.m. Monday, police said. He died at   
   San Francisco General Hospital.   
      
   The driver of the car, a 30-year-old man, stopped after the   
   crash and cooperated with investigators. His name wasn't   
   released.   
      
   Beckwith founded a San Francisco company in 2001, BB Design   
   Build, that specialized in cabinetry and finish work. He went on   
   to star on "Curb Appeal," a show in which people's outdated   
   homes are given makeovers.   
      
   A native of Maine, Beckwith graduated from the University of   
   Montana with degrees in modern dance and English. He was a   
   kickboxer, yoga enthusiast and martial artist, and an actor who   
   was a member of the Screen Actors Guild.   
      
   Beckwith's family launched a Facebook page Tuesday to remember   
   him. His girlfriend, Yulia Korneeva, wrote, "My love, so kind   
   and bright, adventurous and strong. You are loved by so many   
   good people! I wish you could stay with us for way longer."   
      
   In a statement, network officials said, "The HGTV family is   
   deeply saddened by Bill's tragic death, and we mourn his loss   
   along with his many family and friends who will miss his   
   creativity, adventurous spirit and general love of life."
