Joey is the grandfather of Natheneal Nicholson, Bentley Beachley, Addison Beachley, Joseph A. Beachley, III, and Ayden Beachley.
He is preceded in death by his son the late Derrick Beachley, grandson Silas Beachley, former mother-in-law Jo Mentzer, sister Jeannie Beachley, nephew Sammy Divel, many cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents and his beloved dog Bud.

The family would like to acknowledge Serena, Charlotte, Brooke and everyone at the Brunswick American Legion.
