Michael Anthony Beasley

Michael Anthony Beasley, 55, of Bellefontaine, passed away unexpectedly at his home on Saturday, July 18, 2026.

Mike was born on September 7, 1970, in Cincinnati, Ohio, to Philip and Ginger Beasley. He graduated from Bellefontaine High School in 1989 and spent his life building lasting friendships and caring deeply for those around him.

Mike’s greatest joy was his family. He loved spending time with his children, playing cards, and making everyone laugh with his goofy jokes. Like his father, Mike was a lifelong Cincinnati Bengals fan, and he enjoyed cheering on the Bengals with his family.

Mike never met a stranger. He had an easy smile, a kind heart, and a willingness to help anyone who needed it. Whether it was lending a hand, mowing a neighbor’s lawn, or simply showing up when someone needed him, Mike was the person people knew they could count on. His generosity, compassion, and genuine love for others left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him.

Mike was preceded in death by his father Philip Beasley, and a brother-in-law Richard Wilcox.

He will be lovingly remembered by his children, Rebecca Beasley (Cody) Anderson of Bellefontaine, Matthew Beasley of Bowling Green, Christopher (Isabel) Beasley of Columbus, and Nicholas Beasley of Bellefontaine; his mother, Ginger Beasley; his sisters, Karen Beasley and Kelly Wilcox; his nephews, Derek, Jered and Max Wilcox; his nieces, Katie and Sydney Wilcox; and the children who knew and loved him as a grandfather figure, Kaylee Dickinson, Houlden Wilson, Caydence Wilson and Grayson Wilson.

A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at St. Patrick Catholic Church on Friday, July 24, at 11:00 a.m. Visitation and a meal will immediately follow in Makley Hall, 316 East Patterson Avenue, Bellefontaine.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Logan County Animal Shelter, in care of Logan County Sheriff, 284 Co. Rd. 32 South, Bellefontaine, OH 43311.
