In loving memory of a wonderful brother.
I will miss you more than words can say.
I sought my soul, but my soul I could not see.
I sought my God, but my God eluded me.
I sought my brother and I found all three.

Ron words can not describe the way our hearts feel You were such a big part of our lives for many years. You blessed my family by allowing us to be part of yours. You brought a different spirit to my little church which made a great change in many lives. Our hearts are broke but I know you are happy and in no more pain now. I am sure Jan, Endora and many of your family and friends were there to meet you. Fly high Mr B. You touched many lives and were loved deeply by so many.

I have no words adequate or eloquent enough to honor you as I know you deserve. You made your mark on my life before I ever met your son. Your unique ability to teach and preach at the same time helped me to have a desire to be in God's house at a time in my life it had faded. Life had gotten the best of my affections for God. One day, one sermon changed my life. The sermon spoke deep into my spirit that resulted in a fire that has never died. Then there came a day you prayed for me to find my spouse. Your prayer that my path would cross with the man that God had for me. A few months later you said, When I prayed that prayer, I did not know I was praying for my son. Then you welcomed me into your family, and I believe, into your heart! Thank you for the legacy and love you have left in my life, church, and family. Thank you for being the father and man of God to my husband that you never got to experience. I love you forever and will see you again one day!

The Peru Family Fellowship Church of God is keeping the Beady family in prayer. I think of the song by Janet Paschal, "Another Soldiers Going Home." How appropriate as Dr. Beady has received his reward. "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord." We'll be praying for the home going celebration. All to his Glory,

I first met Brother Ronald Beady about 24 years ago at Chattaroy Church of God. He was a wonderful pastor whom I will never forget. Memories of him and words he spoke are still with me today. He has been on a journey for many, many years and he has finally reached his destination - Heaven.

I remember something Pastor Beady said to me once and it has always given me a sense of peace and that is that God gives us the grace to live and gives us His grace to die! Thank you Pastor Beady for your years of service to our Heavenly Father ❤ And to His people.
