It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Jimmy Dale Beavers, who died on June 10, 2026 in Madill, Oklahoma, at the age of 76.

Jim was born on September 30, 1949, in Love’s Valley, Oklahoma to Willie G. and Norma F. (Weehunt) Beavers. He was raised in Wichita Falls, Texas, where he attended high school. He married Wanda Jean Greenwood in 1968. They were married for 24 years and raised their three children together in Marietta, Oklahoma.

Jim was a journeyman lineman for Red River Valley REA and OG&E for many years. He had a strong work ethic and was very safety-conscious. He owned and managed a gun and pawn store, enjoyed flying his single engine airplane as a private pilot, and was an excellent marksman. He spent many hours producing highly accurate ammunition through precision reloading. He enjoyed riding motorcycles, playing pool, hunting, fishing, yardwork, and home improvement projects. He enjoyed playing dominoes with family and friends. He especially loved spending time with his dog, BB. He was a member of New Beginnings Church in Madill, Oklahoma where he volunteered for the security team.

He was preceded in death by his parents, and sister, Carolyn Willis.

He is survived by his children, Ricky Beavers and wife Sheila of Katy, Texas, Melany Williams and husband Travis of Madill, Oklahoma, and Amber McCann and husband Tim of Marietta, Oklahoma; grandchildren, Nathan Williams, Makayla Williams, Ian Beavers, Joshua Beavers, Gavin Beavers and significant other Raegan Flores, and Jeremiah Beavers; a great-grandchild, Mia Flores-Beavers; and a brother, Johnny Beavers of Wichita Falls, Texas.

So also, you have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice! And no one will take your joy away from you.-John 16:22
