TED BEALS Obituary

Ted and Gladys meant so much to our family. We lived across the street from them for 50 years and they were not only wonderful neighbors, but wonderful friends as well. Ted gave so much to the neighborhood. He cared so much for children and showed his love in everything he did for them. He repaired their bikes and even gave them bikes when they couldn't afford them. He is greatly missed. But he left his legacy for all to remember. Ted, you were the greatest.

I knew Ted since I was 11 years old. Even though I was only a friend of Kristen's, he treated me like part of the family and welcomed me with open arms. He always showed an interest in my life and was one of the most loving and caring men I have ever been blessed enough to meet. The world could learn so much from a man like him.

The Ted Beals we all remember will be in our hearts forever.The Ted Beals that passed away was not Ted.

GRAMPS- YOU WERE THE BEST MAN I HAVE EVER KNOWN, AND I WILL LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU FOREVER. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WONDERFUL MEMORIES I HAVE WITH YOU.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Ted was a man and was always kind to the kids. Damario has many memories with tony and all the bikes he always had. We will always remember his kindness.

I also grew up living across the street from the Beals family. Ted and Gladys not only had time and patience for me when I'd visit them as a child, but for my own children later on in life. My kids would beg to go to their home and spend time with them. And Ted was always ready and willing to fix their bicycles. Thank you for all the help and support you extended to my family. The old neighborhood will not be the same without the Beals, but the house will forever be your home in my memories. Ted will always be the wonderful, kind man in the suspenders to me. We will miss you.

I love you Gramps.You truely will be missed!

Grandpa, you were truly my hero. I remember as a kid spending hours with you in your garage, thinking that you walked on water, and as an adult I thought that still. You had the kindest heart and soul of anyone I've ever known. I love you and will miss you always.

My dad was the best! He was thoughtful, loving and giving. He had a great sense of humor. He could fix anything that needed fixing. I will always miss those wonderful qualities. I love you Dad for all eternity. Your daughter...

Dear Gladys and Family,

I am so sorry to read about Ted - I know how wonderful he was and how good he was to Judy and Lyle all the time! I lost my husband and my Mom in January and February - believe me, it does get easier with time. Drove by Mother's old house on San Luis when I took Will's ashes to the Springs in August - looks great!
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

My Dad, he truly was one of the best! He taught me so much, gave me so much.He is an will be thought of everyday!He was a giver for sure.

Grandpa will be in our hearts forever as a kind, humorous and loving man. We have so many good memories of him and we will miss him deeply. Our thoughts go out to Grandma, Aunt Debbie, Dad Doug, all our cousins and all other relatives and friends. We will be down to visit at the end of the month and are looking forward to see you all. Lots of love from

Mr. Beals used to lived across the street from my family. Though I didn't know him, rarely a weekend went by that we didn't see a new bike (or bikes) in his driveway with a big FREE sign on them. My kids even took an old bike or 2 over to him to repair and give away.
God Bless Mr. Beals and his family.
