Tyrone resided in Summerfield, Fl. with his fiance Barbara Beckert. It was a great love story.
ReplyDeleteBarbara Beckert was not Ty Beason’s fiancé! He was the father of 3 daughters, Lisa Beason Bowers, Lori Beason Diers and Courtney Beason. He was an amazing father and husband to Edith Beason. He was taken care of by his daughters who loved him very much!
ReplyDeleteYes, I was his fiance and we lived together in Florida. We didn't marry because of his family problems. He was my love and all his friends will agree. He had been divorced from Edith for years. If only Ty and I had met sooner!
