Obituary

Donald (Don) Clark Beil was a cherished husband, beloved father, and adored grandfather. He was a highly respected sales manager, business owner, and devout Christian.

Don was born June 30, 1945, to William Edward and Mildred Lerose Beil in Tulsa, Ok. Don grew up in Tulsa, Oklahoma City, and Phoenix. He was the third of three children-preceded in death by brothers, Ralph Gregory and Gary Edward Beil. Don went to be with his savior on July 5, 2021.

Don attended high school at Thomas Edison High School in Tulsa, OK. After graduation he attended Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK, where he received his bachelor's degree. Then he joined the Air Force as an Electrical Engineer in Avionics and served as a Captain working with the F-111 fighter jets.

Don met the love of his life, Judy Sue Covington, during his senior year of college and they were married in 1968. They shared 53 wonderful years together, and raised a loving family. Judy says Don remains the kindest man she has ever met.

Don and Judy have three children: Brian Beil, Kari Beil Mannell, and Lynne Gorman; all of which reside in the Tulsa, OK area to Don's delight. Don was especially fond of his children's spouses: Melanie Beil and Greg Gorman. Don and Judy are also the proud grandparents of eight grandchildren: Sebastian Mannell, Charlotte Mannell, Zane Beil, Grey Beil, Ginger Beil, Josh Gorman, J.T. Gorman, and Trevor Gorman.

Don was baptized as a child at Crown Heights Christian Church. He first joined Yale Avenue Christian Church in 1962 and returned after his time in the Air Force. He continued to serve at the church for many years in multiple roles such as Deacon, Elder, Chairman of the Board, Youth Sponsor, member of men's bible study, TLC and Hooked and Lookin' Sunday school class. He enjoyed working with the youth during bible school.

Don's interests included boating, skiing, fishing, watching sports, cooking, playing games, and gathering with friends and family.
