SALEM – On Thursday, December 10, 2020 with his beloved wife and children by his side, Robert E. “Bobby” Beeson, Jr. entered the gates of Heaven after 69 years on Earth. Born in Salem, OH to Eleanor (Wooten) Beeson-Allison and the late Robert E. Beeson, Sr.
Bobby was a 1969 graduate of Salem High School, a US Marine, a machinist by trade, and a die-hard Alabama football fan – for which his children have forgiven him. He was a member of Greenford Christian Church. Bobby was an avid golfer, and we know he has finally made that elusive hole-in-one with the help of Jesus and Sam the Dog on the celestial course located on the other side of the coin.
Bobby is survived by his faithful and loving wife of almost 49 years, Toni (Macry) Beeson, his favorite children, Melanie (Joseph) Good and Justin (Shana) Beeson; four perfect grandsons, who were his pride and joy, J.T. (Taylour), Brandon, and Alexander (Claire) Good, and Jakob Beeson; and one great-granddaughter Maisyn Grace Good with another on the way; two brothers Joseph (Becky) Beeson and Jimmy (Jill) Beeson, his mother’s husband Joe Allison, and several nieces, nephews, cousins, and siblings he inherited from his wife, whether he wanted them or not.
In addition to his father, Bobby was greeted in Heaven by his sister, Zina Michelle Beeson; his mother-in-law and father-in-law, and several lifelong friends who have been waiting for his arrival. During his one trip around the dance floor, Bobby was known for his wicked sense of humor, generosity, love for his family and many friends, and sitting in his favorite chair resting his eyes while the Golf Channel played on the tv.
The family would also like to recognize the amazing staff in the ICU department at Salem Regional Medical Center for the extraordinary care and dignity shown to Bobby and his family during the recent weeks. And as difficult as it is for his Buckeye loving family – we offer a final ROLL TIDE.
