David Beasley Harn

David Beasley Harn, age 82, passed away peacefully on February 8, 2025, at Hospice Savannah, surrounded by family. A Savannah native, he graduated from Savannah High School in 1960 and furthered his education at Georgia Military College in Milledgeville and Georgia Southern College in Statesboro. In 1962, he began a distinguished 57-year career with New York Life Insurance, retiring at 76.

David was a dedicated member of the Georgia Underwriters Association. Outside of his professional life, he cherished the outdoors, particularly hunting and fishing. Golf was another passion, bringing him both challenge and camaraderie; he was an active member of the Forest City Gun Club for over 30 years and the Savannah Golf Club for over 50 years.

Known for his sociable nature, David loved meeting new people and engaging in lively conversations. His gift for connecting with others was a defining characteristic of his personality. He was preceded in death by his parents, Nuell Beasley and Reginald Boyd Harn.

David is survived by his wife of 57 years, Sandra Mansfield Harn; his sister, Melinda Harn Smith; his daughter, Renee Harn Hickman (Wayne); his son, Reginald Brian Harn; and three grandsons: David Waters Hickman, Jacob Allen Hickman, and Jackson Brian Harn. His children from a previous marriage, Tamara Lea Harn and David Beasley Harn, Jr., also survive him.

Graveside service will be held at 1:00 p.m. in Bonaventure Cemetery on Monday, February 10, 2025.
