Richard "Rit" Wesley Beaird passed away on March 25, 2024, at the age of 60, in Nashville, TN. His battle with serious medical issues throughout his life showed his incredible tenacity.
Richard was born in Wiltshire, England to a military family as the youngest child. He was the family's baby and nurtured as such. He was quiet and introverted, yet smart and witty with a contagious smile and great sense of humor.
Richard worked as a trained electrician across several states. He loved to cook and enjoyed his daily English tea. Richard loved the piano and guitar, and he was a talented drawing artist-a trait that he passed along to his beloved daughters.
Richard is survived by daughters: Jessica Meagan and Maya Miliek, granddaughter, Lydia Dawn; along with his mother: Sheila "Lou," sisters: Jessie and Cheryl, and brothers: Cordell and Tracy "Charlie," along with many cousins, nieces and nephews.
