I never thought chemistry would be a fun subject; but you changed that for me Dr. Beale. Thank you for displaying what a caring teacher looks like. You truly made a difference in my life. May you find eternal peace.

Thank you for your your inspiration, dedication, and motivation. My 10th grade Chemistry class in 1993 wouldn't have been the same without you. If ever I feel that life is becoming too much for me to keep going, I will always remember what you told us, "IT keeps me going!!!" :) You are eternally loved. Thank you for making a difference. R.I.P.

It seems like yesterday that I saw Dr. Beale, even though it has been over 10 yrs. That is how much of an impact he has had in my life. It is truly hard to say goodbye to such a fun-loving person. I remember the days he would sell candy in the halls and make his Dr. Beale jokes. He lived and breathed his craft and he wanted you to love it as much as he did. Those up in heaven are receiving a special person, he will keep them laughing never letting them frown. He will be physically missed but he is within all of us eternally. May the Lord be with him always.

To the Bill Family, you are in my prayers, but remeber Gods always prove to us he only take the best. I know that because he also took my mother at the age og 51 early this year. Keep hold onto his changing hand. Dr. Beal was an excellent teacher. I ate a lot of those crackers he use to sale at 4th period.
God Bless

I was saddened to hear of the passing of such a great man, teacher, mentor and scholar. Dr. Beale taught two of my four children, but his influence touched them all. Their lives, as well as mine, will be forever enriched for knowing him. Suitland SHS will not be the same with you sir. Rest in peace! My condolences and apologies to the family for the lateness of this entry. Thank you for lending him to us for such a long time!

Blessings to all,

Wow... Let's see... First of all I would like to say that Dr. Beale was nothing short a joy to be around and a true lover of what he did best, teach. Dr. Beale will forever be in my heart and as for his family I pray that you continue to hold onto the memories and laughs I know he has made we you all, as he has done for the students of Suitland's Class of 1998!! I can't say all that I would like for fighting back the tears and pain of this news; I have always heard that God takes home the pure angels first but please also know that Dr. Beale was a great man, mentor, advisor, teacher and comedian and he has touched so many lives and he will never be forgotten.

I love you Dr. Beale and thanks for everything you taught me and every student/person that crossed your path.
