Judge J. W. Beaird Passes Away Wed.
Judge John Waldon Beaird, 71, passed away at Bobo Hospital, Wednesday morning at six o'clock after an illness of about six weeks. Funeral services were conducted from the Moore Funeral Home Thursday afternoon at five o'clock, with Rev. S. M. Bennett officiating. Burial was in Parkdale Cemetery. Pall bearers were Tommie Spruance, Tom Cravens, Web Rose, Arch Cannon, A. C. Benge and James Knapp.
He is survived by his widow, one grandaughter, Mrs. Gilbert Caroll of Dallas and two great grandchildren, John and Bertha Belle Caroll also of Dallas.
Judge Beaird was born in Tyler and lived there until 16 years ago when he moved to Arlington. He was an active member of the Presbyterian Church.
He was well known in legal circles over Texas and was engaged in the active practice of law up until the time of his last illness.
He was a Christian gentleman of the old school, reserved, courteous, kindly, a believer in honesty and justice. He was city attorney of Arlington for a number of years. He expected the best from his friends and associates and gave in return a friendship that was loyal and true. Men like Judge Beaird are fast passing but they leave with us a memory of a life lived as life should be lived, a desire to be more honest and fair with our neighbors, more conscientious in our business dealings and to live each day so that there will be no one with whom we have come in contact who can say it was not good to have been with us.
