Obituary of David Wayne Beacham
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of David Wayne Beacham on July 19, 2025, at the age of 75.David was born in Guelph, Ontario, and raised in Burlington by his predeceased loving parents, Ken and Wilma Beacham. Dave later moved to Niagara Falls in 1971, where he met the love of his life, Ann, at a friend’s party. Together, they built a beautiful life filled with love, laughter, and lasting memories. In 1987, they settled in Chippawa, where they planted roots and raised their family. Dave and Ann shared 54 wonderful years together.
Dave will be deeply missed by his brother Dale (Terri), brother-in-law Kenny (Rosemary), and his many nieces and nephews, all of whom he cared for deeply.
He was a devoted father to two beloved sons, Trevor (Kathryn) and Ryan (Mary), and a proud and loving grandfather to Chris (Angel), Will, Josh, Cameron, and Cate.
Dave found joy in life’s simple pleasures. His #1 enjoyment was sitting beside his beautiful pool with a cold Brava in hand and surrounded by those he loved most. A man of many passions, he had a deep love for music and always had the radio on. He enjoyed camping, swimming, and spent years playing fastball and slow pitch. A lifelong fan of fast sportscars, Dave was also a dedicated supporter of the Buffalo Bills, Hamilton Tiger-Cats, and the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Dave worked at Kraft for 35 years, ending his career there as a mechanic. He also gave back to the community as a proud Scout leader with the 17th Niagara, helping to shape the lives of many young people. He will be remembered for his warmth, sense of humour, devotion to family, and his unwavering love of life. Dave’s presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
A private family service will be held. In lieu of flowers, the family encourages you to spend time with your loved ones, share stories, and turn up the radio in Dave’s honour.

Dear Ann, Ryan and Trevor…. Dave was surely a prize for all who knew him. He enriched everyone with his smile and great sense of humor. Let his memories be a blessing for us all. I’m certain he is ordering a new Mustang on the other side.
