Brother Zack W. Beasley was born on August 4, 1849, and died on July 5, 1925, aged seventy-five years, eleven months, and one day. Brother Beasley was married to Ella Beasley in February, 1869. To them twelve children were born. Eight are now living--three sons and five daughters--all members of the church of Christ. Brother Beasley obeyed the gospel under the preaching of Brother Frank Davis in 1875. I first met Brother Beasley thirty-three years ago, while I was conducting a meeting at Boston, Williamson County, Tenn. He afterwards moved near Burwood, in the same county, and worshiped at Thompson Station till I started the congregation at Burwood. He and Sister Beasley then began to worship with us at Burwood. Brother Beasley was an elder in the Burwood congregation, becoming such by virtue of his spiritual growth. Brother and Sister Beasley seemed to remember their marriage vows to make life pleasant and happy for each other. Brother Beasley was esteemed very highly by both the church and the world. That was evident from the great concourse of people that attended his funeral and burial. Funeral services were conducted by the writer, after which his body was laid to rest in the Burwood cemetery. Brother Beasley will be sadly missed in the home, in the church, in the community, and in all the walks of life. May the rich promises offered in God's word comfort and console the sorrowing ones in their sad bereavement.
