I’m sorry to hear about Beau’s passing. I went to High School with Beau. He was such a practical joker in school and made English Class enjoyable to come to everyday. Also such a Gentleman to everyone! Sending my prayers to his Family and Loved Ones..
We were so sorry to learn of Beau’s untimely passing. We will always have fond memories of him stopping by our house and playing with our children. He certainly brought laughter into our neighborhood and wherever else he happened to be.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
Love,
Dick & Sheila
