Jones Beach Bums

In Memory of Dave Beechel

4/10/54 to 4/30/94

My brother passed away on April 30th 1994.
He lived an extraordinary life, much too short.
Some of you will remember his lust for life.
He didn't do things halfway. It was all or nothing.
He loved racing around in his '69 Camaro.
Surfing the North Shore in Hawaii.
Cruising the streets on his Harley Davidson.
And oh!!!! Yes, he loved the ladies.
He loved his time with the Beach Bums.
He was proud of his service, in the United States Army.
He was a proud father, leaving behind William, now 16,
And Andrew, 14 .
He was a loving Uncle to Christopher, Patrick, Ryan and Kyle.
A loving Son, and Brother to Donna and Debbie.
And he was the best big Brother, anyone could hope for.
I'm sure Dave and Tommy are now chasing the girls in Heaven.
I will always cherish his memory, and forever miss him.
