The son of Mr. and Mrs. J.J. Beasley, Tom Beasley was born Dec. 11, 1870 near Ralston Creek, west of Arvada, Colo. Shortly thereafter, the family moved to the St. Vrain Valley, where Mr. Beasley lived most of his life.
As a young man, Mr. Beasley assisted his father in farming and ranching operations. His was the role of early-day cowboy, who worked the cattle roundups. Later, as a cattleman, he raised shorthorn cattle on his farm in the Longmont and Niwot communities.

Following his retirement from farming, Mr. Beasley devoted much of his time to raising prize winning roses. He was honored as one of the pioneer cowboys of the area and as "Mr. St.Vrain Pioneer" participated in the Boulder County Fair and Rodeo parade for many years.
Survivors include a daughter, Mrs. C.A. (Modesto) Lippincott of Niwot, one son, George Beasley of Parkville, Mo; one sister, Mrs. Elmer Johnson of Longmont, five grandchildren and five great grandchildren.
During recent years, the Beasley family held an annual reunion at Roosevelt Park, with 300 members of the Beasley family in attendance last summer.
