Joshua Jared Beason

Joshua Jared Beason, passed away on May 5, 2026, in Ripley, Oklahoma. Born on December 18, 1977, in Moab, Utah, Joshua's journey was marked by his deep love for family, his passion for adventure, and a commitment to the life he built with those closest to him.

Josh's early years were rooted in Moab until his family moved to Bartlesville, Oklahoma, where he grew up from first grade onward. His formative education took place within the Bartlesville public schools, culminating in his graduation from Bartlesville High School in the Class of 1996. Following his high school achievements, Josh pursued technical education at Meridian Technology Center, where he specialized in Auto Body and Diesel Mechanics. This technical expertise reflected his hands-on approach to life and work, grounding him in skills that he carried with pride.

Living his life with joy and enthusiasm, Joshua was a loving father who delighted in sharing stories about his children, Jacob Beason and Emma Beason. His love and pride in them were evident to all who knew him. Beyond his role as a father, Josh found great pleasure in the outdoors, often engaging in fishing and camping trips. He was passionate about road trips, playing cards, enjoying music, and most importantly, spending quality time with family and friends. These activities were not mere pastimes but expressions of his caring nature and zest for life.

Josh's presence will be deeply missed by his surviving family members. He leaves behind his son Jacob Beason, his daughter Emma Beason, his mother Carol Beason, along with his father Ray Beason and stepmother Jeannie, who nurtured him with love and support throughout his life. Josh is also survived by his siblings Jeremy Beason, Jon Beason and wife Danielle, Ray Hall and wife Lynn, along with his step-siblings, Raena, Robert, and Sabrina. Each held a special place in his heart, and together they shared moments that defined their family bond.

His passing also brings to mind those who preceded him in death, including Buel Albert Turner, Euteva Imogene Turner, Robert George Beason, and Linda Dull. Though they are no longer with us, their memories remain a part of the fabric that shaped Josh’s life.

Joshua Jared Beason’s life was one of warmth, dedication, and heartfelt connections. His legacy endures through the love he shared, the lessons he imparted, and the memories he created with all who had the privilege to know him. As family and friends come together to honor and remember Joshua, they celebrate a life lived with integrity, laughter, and profound love. May he rest in peace.
