Lyndal Hope Moore was born February 2, 1929, to Lewis and Maude Moore in Roby, TX. She graduated from Polytechnic High School in Fort Worth, TX, in 1947 and married George Beam on October 14, 1948, in Fort Worth. She worked as a secretary until the birth of her children, when she devoted her time to helping with and attending their activities. Lyn could often be found taking a car full of students to football games, choir competitions, and cheerleading camps, many of which were hours away. When her children were grown, she helped George with his real estate inspection and appraisal business until his death in 2002. She loved to travel and visited Spain, Morocco, the former Soviet Union, and Rio de Janero, as well as many places within the United States. In her later years, Lyn volunteered as an Ambassador at DFW Airport, and she enjoyed Silver Sneakers and line dancing with her dear friends at the Bedford YMCA. She was a wonderful wife, mother, and friend and was always impeccably dressed. Most importantly, she was a devoted follower of Christ and a student of God’s Word.
Lyn is survived by her children, Susan Strong, Jane (David) Backus; grandchildren, Joshua Strong, Jacob (Mikala) Backus, Victor (Kaitlyn) Backus, Curran Hope Backus, Benjamin Backus; great-grandchildren Henry Stanton Strong, Elliott Hudson Backus, Oliver Nehemiah Backus (arriving soon); nephews and nieces.
She was preceded in death by her husband George Beam; parents, Lewis and Maude Moore; sister, Britty Moore Turnbow.
She died on Sunday, June 1, 2025, in Lubbock, TX.
