Patricia Ann Beadle

Pat Beadle (Lenz), 78, of DeSoto, Kansas, passed away peacefully on June 14, 2026 surrounded by her family.

Pat was born on September 16, 1947, in Dodge City, Kansas, to Marcel Lenz and Gladys (Tucker) Lenz.

She graduated from Adams High School in Commerce City, CO and dedicated much of her career to customer service, where she was known for her kindness, patience, and ability to make others feel valued.

Pat met the love of her life, Jake Beadle, through their aunts in Dodge City, Kansas. They married in 1967 in Dodge City, KS and built a life centered on faith. They later moved to Commerce City, Colorado, where they started their family and eventually landed in De Soto, KS. In 1996, they moved to Sherman, Texas, to be closer to their grandchildren.

A woman of strong faith, Pat was an active and devoted member of Heritage Church of the Nazarene in Sherman for many decades. Her faith guided her throughout her life and was reflected in her love for family, friends, and community. After retiring in 2018, Pat and Jake returned to Colorado before recently returning to make their home again in DeSoto, Kansas and attend Mill Creek Community Church.

Her greatest joy was her family. She cherished every moment spent with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, and she leaves behind a legacy of love, compassion, and devotion.

She is survived by her loving husband, Jake Beadle; her children, Mark and Angela Beadle and Eric and Brandy Beadle; her grandchildren, Michael Beadle, Jordan (Ryan) Hergenreder and their children, Adelaide and Anderson, Cortney (Greg) Schimke and their children, Wes, Emery, Javez, Aiden, and Ivy, Triston Beadle and his wife Hailey, and Britt Beadle.

She is also survived by her sisters, Betty Bauer and Sarah Arnold and their families as well as many extended family members, friends, and loved ones who will miss her dearly.

Pat was preceded in death by her parents, Mark and Gladys Lenz, and her father-in-law, Jake Beadle.

She was cremated according to her wishes. A Celebration of Life will be held on July 11, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at Mill Creek Community Church (mymillcreek.com).

Family and friends are invited to share condolences and memories on her guestbook page.
