 Some of Larry's favorite hobbies included reading, watching old western movies, barbecuing and spending time with his daughter, granddaughters and siblings but his most favorite of all was spending time with the love of his life Bridget. He always said she was the cheese in his macaroni, the butter on his bread and the hot sauce on EVERYTHING!!!

Larry and Bridget began their courtship in 1984 and was later joined in Holy Matrimony. From this union was born one daughter Brittney whom he loved more than life.

During this time Larry began working for Salvation Army Harbor Light where his ministry began. Later he was licensed to preach at Mt. Moriah Baptist Church under the leadership of Pastor Arthur L. Sample and later ordained as an Elder at New Haven Missionary Baptist Church under the leadership of Bishop Charles H. McClain Jr.

Among many things that Larry loved to do, he had a great love for his community. He enjoyed counseling at Salvation Army ARC and ministered throughout the city to many people. Larry was known for being a sharp dresser and driving his Cadillacs.

As Larry grew in ministry, he later joined New Unity Missionary Baptist Church under the leadership of Bishop Victor T. Woods where he remained until he transitioned to be with the Lord on March 9, 2026. Elder Beasley was preceded in death by his parents, his oldest sister Sharon Johnson, nephew Damon Beasley, and one grandson, DaVonta White.
