Mr. Beaumont was the best teacher that I ever had. He was my electronics tech. instructor at Allegheny high school in the late 1970s and he had a special way of explaining some very complex theories so that every student could understand them. My sympathies to the family for your loss.

I am very saddened to hear of the passing of Mr. Beaumont. I knew him since I was 15 years old. He was a quiet and unassuming man. He was always very kind to me. He gave of himself generously, never asking for anything of himself. He rarely opened up about his WW2 service, but told me some harrowing stories of his time on the Oklahoma City, a cruiser involved in the battle of Okinawa. He was in the thick of it, on deck, reporting Japanese positions. Thank you for your service to our country and for your devotion to duty. Mr. B. sought solace in his fishing hobby and artwork. I was fortunate to be in his company on some of his fishing trips. He taught me how to clean a fish. He was inspired by Bob Ross, on PBS, and taught himself to paint. I am the fortunate recipient of a portrait he did of my son, who was three years old at the time. I will always treasure it. RIP, Mr. B. You were an amazing person, who inspired so many of us. You were part of the Greatest Generation, to which we have so much to be thankful.
