28-Jun-1951 - 20-Apr-2021

Passed away suddenly at home surrounded by loved ones on Tuesday April 20, 2021 in his 70th year. Beloved husband of 35 years to Anna Beach (nee Tessier). Loving father of Matthew, Ryan, Craig (Jonas) and Tanya Beach-Silva (Murillo). Papa of Blake Skye. Brother of Bill (Mona), Doug (late Phyllis), Jack (Sheila), Brian (Sandra), Darlene and predeceased by Ernie (Iris), Gerry (Ruth), Ken, Mary Gill (Cecil), Lila Silk (late Orley), Brenda, and Betty Young. Son of the late William and Viola Beach of Coldwater.

He will be sadly missed by the Tessier family, his many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. Larry was respected by his peers and known for his generosity, his humour and his dedication to his family. He encouraged his children to pursue their goals and interests. His son Matthew took after his dad for his love of reading, philosophy and his quick wit. Son Ryan took after his dad with his love of music and passion for the outdoors. Son Dr. Craig Beach carries on his work in medicine and daughter Tanya carries on the passion for lifelong learning through her work in social services. He was an avid reader that believed in higher learning. He was an original volunteer with the Out of the Cold Program and a choir member at All Saints Anglican Church Penetanguishene.

Music was always an important part of his life as well as his ongoing belief in helping others. If desired, donations to the Heart & Stroke Foundation or the Diabetes Association would be greatly appreciated and will be accepted by the Penetanguishene Funeral Home.
