Joseph M. Beyerle

Joseph Mathew Beyerle - 10/26/1930 to 01/05/2019
Joe was born in Cincinnati to Joseph and Apolonia (Zaharias) Beyerle on October 26, 1930. Growing up in Northside and Westwood he had fond memories of St. Patrick School, working for the Westwood YMCA and being a proud 1948 graduate of Elder High School. He served in the U.S. Marine Corps as a sergeant at Camp Pendleton from 1951-53.
He was married to the love of his life, Joan Mae Beck in 1951. Their 67 year marriage was blessed with five children, thirteen grandchildren and five great- grandchildren. They traveled throughout the United States and Europe, but their greatest joys were at family celebrations. His wife and family were his most prized gift. He will always be known for his “laugh”. He could light up any event with his laughter and appreciated how it could bond people together.
He was a charter member of St. Charles Parish. He was instrumental in establishing the school’s initial CYO program. Joe was co-founder of Centerville Insurance Agency in 1972. His common statement was, “I am an agent for the CIA.” An active member of the Centerville community, Joe was very involved with the growth and popularity of the Americana Festival. In 1996 he was the Grand Marshall of the parade. He coached baseball for the Washington Township Little League and sponsored Centerville High School’s Summer League Teams. He loved being Santa Claus for the city of Centerville for many years. He officiated high school football from 1960-1990 and was named to the OHSAA Officials Hall of Fame in 1996. He was a founding board member of the Miami Valley Football Coaches Association in 1973 and played a major role in establishing the Dayton area High School All-star Football Game. His proudest moment was originating the Dayton Area Family Rosary Rally in 2005 with Bob O’Connor. Unofficially, he was known as the “Mayor of Hyde Park Drive”, his residence of 56 years. Joe belonged to the St. Charles Knights of Columbus and to the Dayton Agonis Club.
A man of strong faith and devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, his enthusiasm, common sense, outgoing personality, love of people, and get things done attitude will long be remembered.
He was preceded in death by his parents, his in-laws, Roman and Helen Beck, Thomas and Mary Helen Fehring and his daughter in-law, Cindy Beyerle.
He is survived by children, Paul (Mary), Dave (Elleen), Cathy Southam (Richard), Pete (Heather), Jim (Melanie); grandchildren- Jessica Miller, Courtney Harris, Ross Beyerle, Dan Southam, Jordan Richardson, Patrick Beyerle, David Southam, Taylor Mackell, Emily Beyerle, Alex Beyerle, Matthew Beyerle, Luke Beyerle, Peyton Beyerle, and great- grandchildren- Brooke Miller, Roxanne Marshall, Rosemary & Nora Mackell, Paxton Richardson.
