Thomas Beaham obituary

Thomas Beaham, 71, passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, adventure, and unwavering love. Tom was a man loved by all who knew him—his laughter, generosity, and helpful nature touched countless lives. Along with Collette, Tom found joy in traveling and exploring the new destinations, sharing those experiences with family and friends new and old. Tom was always the first to offer a helping hand, no matter the need, and his quiet strength was a source of comfort to many. Above all, his greatest joy came from being a grandfather—his granddaughters were the light of his life, and he treasured every moment spent with Lauren and Emily who filled his heart with pride. Tom’s love, laughter, and fun loving spirit will be deeply missed but forever remembered.
