Elliot Matthias Beale

With a heart so tender and a spirit that was sweet and wiggly, little Elliot Matthias Beale graced the world for a brief yet unforgettable time. Born on September 4, 2025, in Dayton, Ohio, he brought immense joy and love to his family from the moment he entered this world.

Elliot, with his big kicks and bright bursts of life, filled his family’s days with joy during his precious hours. His beloved parents, Mason and Haley Beale, cherished every giggle and every little movement that he made, holding tight to the priceless time spent together. The love poured upon him by his paternal grandparents, Collin and Robin Beale, along with his maternal grandparents, Barry and Vicki Tarlton, formed a warm embrace around his short-lived existence. Elliot was survived by many other loving family members, including his aunt Olivia Beale, uncles Gabe and Silas Tarlton, and great-grandparents: Rex and Linda Beale, Bill Lambert, John and Mary Thornsberry, and Sherry Tarlton. Each of them held dreams for the bright future that awaited him, memories that will now live on in their hearts as they remember those fleeting moments filled with love and joy.

Amid the sorrow of loss, a spark remains in the cherished memories of his precious time here. Although Elliot was called home to be with Jesus on September 5, 2025, he will forever remain a cherished light in the hearts of those he touched. His family will carry his sweet spirit with them, loving him always and remembering the delightful joy he brought into their lives, even if just for a little while.

Elliot is preceded in death by his maternal great-grandfather Patrick "Terry" Tarlton; paternal great-grandparents, Harold "Hack" Humberson and Judy Lambert.

The family hopes those who would like to honor Elliot will find a quiet time to remember who he was in your life and be thankful for the time you had together. A celebration of Elliot's life will be held at a later date, please check back.
