soon but his inspiring legacy will live on. Beall—who lived life to the
fullest each day—was the driving force behind the multi-awarded
property in Walland, Tennessee. Beall’s wife, Mary Celeste, will take
over the reins as proprietor of Blackberry Farm to help carry on Beall’s
vision, commitment and leadership.
