He was a devoted father to Nicole (Travis) TenPas, Natalie Frechette, and Amanda (Jamie) Bremer. He was a proud Papa of Julien, Lucas, Gabe, Mia, and Maci. Beaver shared a passion for art with his brother Eugene (Cindy). He was preceded in death by parents Carol (Carlson) Scott and Eugene Frechette and sons-in-law Christopher McDonald and Chuong Callies.

Beaver leaves behind many other cherished family members, friends, and his beloved cat, Baby, who will all miss him dearly.

Beaver was an artist at heart, finding immense joy and fulfillment in capturing Western and Wildlife scenes through oil painting. His talent was evident in the artwork he produced, and painting provided him with a sense of peace and creativity. In addition to his artistic pursuits, Beaver enjoyed fishing and spending time outdoors, always embracing the beauty of nature throughout his life. He shared a love of animals with his mother, enjoyed bird watching, searching for wildlife along his travels, and took time to stop and smell the roses. Beaver treasured adventures with family and friends often enjoying summer concerts in the park and catching a good fish fry. Whether casting a line at a favorite spot or simply throwing back a few beers, Beaver’s charismatic spirit and great sense of humor drew people close. He was kind, generous, and left a lasting impression.
