I'll never forget Dave. He was a Director in the Yellow Pages, and I worked for him. A great man!! I'll never forget the song "Directory Drop Out", that he wrote and we performed at a Yellow Pages function. It was hilarious and lots of fun. Thank you Dave Beamer!!!

I am so sad to hear this, and regret the years that have passed since we spoke. Dave was a great boss and a good friend. His love for his dogs, especially the incomparable Dagwood, was a testament to his character, and surpassed only by his love for his children and grandchildren. He will be missed by many.

David Beamer, a terrific neighbor and friend you will be missed. We had the pleasure of spending time with you for many years as a neighbor and watched you teach young people to love animals and train them as leader dogs, and paws with a cause dogs. Your commitment to training dogs to help others with disabilities was so special, I am sure there is a special place in heaven for you! We will always remember cooking breakfast on the grill during the blackout, we had so much fun. You went through a lot of pain in the last few years, so rest in peace my friend. Jim & Martha Cox
