It is with much sadness to announce that Patrick James Beasley passed away unexpectedly on December 22, 2024 at the age of 66. Patrick was born on January 26, 1958 in Worcestershire, England. Son of Patricia Grazier and Peter Grazier. Patrick later arrived in Canada on May 5, 1975. Those who were lucky enough to know him knew that his world was divided three ways; his family, his job, and motocross. Many of his weekends were spent competing at various tracks, where friendships were formed. Patrick was a devoted employee of Wilson’s Truck Lines where he provided over 40 years of exemplary service, and left a lasting impression on everyone he encountered.
He is survived by his wife Cheryl Beasley, his three children Kelsie Beasley, A.J. Beasley (Anne) (grandchildren Liam, Madison, and Hudson), Justine Stuckey (Kyle), his parents Patricia Grazier and Peter Grazier as well as his three younger siblings Vikki Beasley, Jackie Murray, and Andy Grazier. Predeceased by his best friend Allan Murray.
A Gathering of Remembrance will be held on February 1, 2025 at the Lucknow Legion from 1-3 PM, with a Celebration of Life to be held at Walton Raceway on April 26th 2025 at 11 AM.

I will fondly remember Patrick’s stories. He would often share wisdom, advice and I would often learn something from him. I felt a deep respect for Patrick, he was always full of energy and never seemed to have a bad day, or at least never let it get in the way of him leaving a lasting impression on those he met. He delivered our Produce and Meat orders to Blenheim Food Basics. I would rarely set up our produce department on time due to getting caught up in great conversations together. Patrick immediately struck me as genuine, honest and hard working man. He shared many stories of his life and the things he seen throughout his years, I met him when I was 25, I’m 26 now. He reminded me of my so so much of my father who is a year younger than Patrick. They both came to Ontario around the same time in the 1970’s. The loss of Patrick is truly devastating, my deepest condolences his entire family.
I cannot express the shock in learning of Pat's passing. I was his dispatcher here at Wilson Truck Lines and always looked forward to our conversations when he came into the office. Whether it was sharing his past experiences in England or his stories here in Canada, it was always refreshing to talk to a man who was so calm, polite and full of stories. My condolences go out to all his friends and family. This is a great loss.
