Darin Beedle Obituary
Darin W. Beedle, 61, of Springfield, Mo., passed away on March 2, 2026, surrounded by family at Cox Medical Center South, Springfield Mo.
Born December 4, 1964, in Mexico Mo., to Ron and Kay Beedle. Darin graduated from Mexico High School and obtained a degree in hotel restaurant management from Missouri State University. He built a lifelong career in the restaurant industry.
Darin loved cooking, spending time outdoors and being on the river where he felt most at peace. He had a deep appreciation for nature, but his greatest joy was his children and grandchildren, whom he loved dearly.
He is survived by his father, Ron (Elaine) Beedle of Mexico; his two sons, Darian (Anna) Beedle, of Springfield, and Kadin (Destiney) Beedle of Springfield; his cherished grandchildren Kenyen, Carter, Kalea and Zari; his sister, Danene (Mark) Brooks of Fulton; his brother Chris Beedle, Auxasse; and his aunt, Bonnie Beedle of Tulsa, Okla.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Kay Beedle; and his grandparents Eugene and Alma Beedle, and Earnest and Rosa Eastin.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
