Remembering him
Who Beau was
Beau grew up in Camp Verde, Arizona, where he first stepped onto a wrestling mat and never really stepped off. Anyone who watched him compete knew the story before the whistle even blew — he wrestled like the match mattered more than anything, because to him it did.
He wrestled for Camp Verde High School, where he became a State Champion and where teammates knew him as the one who stayed late, showed up early, and pulled everyone else up with him. That same drive carried him into a life of service: Beau became a registered nurse (RN) because he loved helping people, and he gave that care to everyone who crossed his path.
Beau believed that wrestling gave you more than medals. It gave you discipline when things were hard, humility when you lost, and the courage to face someone across the circle with nothing but what you’d earned in practice. Those are the lessons this scholarship exists to pass on.
He never once backed down from a hard thing. He just tightened his laces and got to work.
