Charles Lowell "Bo" Beecroft• Soc Sec Num, 541-36-0283
Birth:Jul. 5, 1934
Death:Aug. 6, 2007
Charles Lowell 'Bo' Beecroft, died Wednesday, August 6, 2007, at his home in Coos Bay, Oregon. He was 73.
He was born in Roseburg, Oregon, July 5, 1934, to Charles and Ruth Beecroft. He married Nesta Rose Patterson on August 10, 1959, in Roseburg.
Early years were spent in Portland, Oregon and Douglas County communities of Melrose and Callahan Ridge. He attended high school in Roseburg and served in the Korean Conflict.
For many years Bo worked as a heavy equipment operator for Douglas County, Weyerhauser Company and at a gold mine in Alaska. He spent 19 years as a "cat skinner", most of those with local Weyerhauser operations at Dellwood and Allegany camps. He managed a mobile home park at Fairbanks, Alaska, and in his later years worked as a driver for "Meals On Wheels" in Coos Bay. He was a member of the Lutheran Church and served as an elder. Bo loved a good laugh, and good-naturely enjoyed "getting your goat". He was a dependable friend, a caring father, and a devoted husband. He had a positive personality and was a super guy.
Charles is survived by his wife, Nesta; daughter, Tina Charon of Idelyld Park, Oregon; brother, Jim Beecroft of Albany, Oregon; sister, Judy Page of Lake Oswego, Oregon; sister, Joyce Mast of Idaho; grandchildren, Amber Wright; Amanda Wright-Nile; Kaleb Wright; Aimee Lebow; Sarah Lebow; Beth Lebow; Leah Lebow; and greatgrandchild, DeAngelo Lebow.
