Kenneth E. Beegle

May 15, 1940 — November 28, 2017

Kenneth E. “Ken” Beegle, 77, of Dover died on Tuesday, November 28, 2017 at the Community Hospice Truman House.

Born on May 15, 1940 in his home in East Sparta, he was the son of the late Rush E. and Ruth (Laird) Beegle. He was also preceded in death by his sister, Pauline Reinhard.

Ken was always a hard worker. He began working at the age of nine delivering newspapers on three different routes. He later worked at a bowling alley where he was a pin setter. He graduated from Sandy Valley High School with the class of 1958. On July 11, 1959, Ken married the love of his life, Diane Smith. Together they had three children.

Ken was extremely proud of his retirement on April 13, 2000 from Union Camp, where he worked for over 32 years. He attended LifeBridge Bible Study. He loved NASCAR and motorcycles. Above all, he enjoyed time spent with his family. He was very resourceful and could fix just about anything. His wit and sense of humor could change any day into a good day.

In addition to his wife Diane, he will be sadly missed by his children: Vickie Sullivan of Strasburg, Todd Beegle of Dover, and Pamela Beegle of Ft. Lauderdale, FL; along with his granddaughter, Mary Sullivan of Strasburg. He also leaves behind his K-9 companion, Ellie.

A celebration of Ken’s life will be held at the Toland-Herzig Funeral Home & Crematory in Dover on Friday, December 1, 2017 at 12:00pm with Pastor Jason Rissler officiating. Interment will take place at East Sparta Cemetery. Friends are invited to call one hour prior to the service on Friday.
