Daniel J. Beasley

Daniel J. Beasley died peacefully on Sunday morning, October 17 after a long illness. At his side were his beloved wife, Kathleen, daughter Brielle and stepson Aric. He was predeceased by his son Bruce.

Dan was born in Fall River, MA, the only child of the late Riley and Pamela Beasley. After graduating from UMass Dartmouth with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Dan discovered his life’s work in this field and worked at a number of notable companies on the North Shore.

Dan was a man of many interests and extraordinary talents. He played piano, violin and clarinet and enjoyed writing symphonic compositions. He was an avid reader and excelled in history and art. Dan also had a deep appreciation of the natural world, and this was often reflected in the poetry he wrote. He cherished his time outdoors and could often be found in the yard with his cats and dogs.

Dan was a man who cherished life, protected his loved-ones, and gave freely and kindly to others.

At the family’s request, burial arrangements will be private. There will be a memorial service at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, expressions of sympathy may be made in his memory to MSPCA-Angell 350 Huntington Ave., Boston, MA 02130, and Amyloidosis Research Fund, 72 E. Concord Street K-503, Boston, MA 02118.
