Obituary of Gary Beyer

Gary Beyer, 80, of Cocoa, Florida, passed on September 04, 2020. Gary was born on May 19, 1940 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania as the only son of parents Paul and Madge Beyer. He had a younger sister, Linda, who preceded him in death. He was a proud and loyal Marine who fought for the country he loved, deploying to Vietnam 3 separate times and receiving both the Purple Heart and the Gold Star. He was an avid gardener and loved the outdoors, spending much of his leisure time surrounded by nature-whether fishing or hunting. With his loving wife Donna at his side, they shared many adventures through their 58 year marriage and their love was inspiring. In his later years, Gary followed his dream to become an author and wrote of his life and legacy in his book, "Through The Years".

Gary is survived by his son, Jeffery Beyer (wife Ramona), two grandsons- Dr. Eric Beyer and Dr. Justin Beyer (wife Kristen), as well as their two young children-Gary’s great-grandchildren-Lila Grace and Jesse Scott Beyer.
