___ PCN FLIGHT WEST is sponsored by the Pilot Communication Network and is a service of the PCN provided for the Delta Pilot Retired family of pilot groups. Flight West was started and is maintained to accomplish two main goals. After we become aware of a colleague who has Flown West, 1. We aim to produce a “timely” notice sent to our community that allows for support and interaction from our group toward the grieving family of our friend and colleague. 2. Then, we aim to “archive” that notice on our Flown West Blogspot as a lasting accessible place of Dignity and Honor of our colleague for family legacy and posterity. Contributor contact info is generally removed before posting (unless requested otherwise).

after suffering from dementia. Tyron was 85 years old, soon to be 86 on June

11, 2024. He resided at Summerfield, Florida which is in west central

Florida between Ocala and Leesburg. Prior to employment with NWA on October

  1. Tyrone resided in Summerfield, Fl. with his fiance Barbara Beckert. It was a great love story.

  2. Barbara 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!

  3. Yes, 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!
