James William Beach Jr

Mr. James “Jim” William Beach, Jr., age 76, of Villa Rica, Georgia, passed away on Tuesday, May 10, 2022. He was born in Norton, Virginia, on October 17, 1945 to the late James William Beach, Sr. and Anna Lee Beach. Jim proudly served his country in the United States Air Force. A personable man, he loved to talk and had a way of making you feel like you were the only one in the room. He was attentive and made you feel understood. In his spare time, he enjoyed going to the Villa Rica and Douglasville AmVets Posts, playing cards with his friends, and dancing. He was part of a card-playing club that would meet a couple of days a week at Highlanders to play poker. Jim loved being around his friends. More than anything, Jim loved his family. They were his #1 and all who loved him will cherish his memory.

In addition to his parents, Jim is preceded in death by his loving wife, Mary Jo Beach. They shared over 50 years of marriage together.

Left to cherish his memory are his daughters, Traci Beach and Kimberly Beach Davis (Brad); his son, Andrew Evans; grandchildren, Ajee Weddington, Stephen Davis, and Julian Davis; and 2 great-grandchildren, Ava Arnold and Eme Johnson.

In accordance with his wishes, Jim will be cremated. There are no plans for a Celebration of Life at this time.
