Stephanie Blume, Truckee director for Project MANA, said that death or serious injury to the homeless population from harsh winter weather has become typical for the area.
"It happens every winter. We get clients who die from the cold because we don't have an emergency shelter," said Blume.
Blume said Beals' death underscores the desperate need for a homeless shelter in the Truckee-Tahoe area as shelters in Reno and Sacramento already have long waiting lists.
Beals was a recent regular at Truckee's Project MANA and known to Blume, who said he suffered from serious medical problems but was harmless and nice to those with whom he associated.
According to another transient client who said he was with Beals the night before he died, Blume said the client and Beals had taken shelter at the post office but were later asked to leave by law enforcement.
Blume said according to the client, Beals had remained behind, declining to accompany his friend to the nearby Fellowship Church.
Loren Morrill, pastor of the Fellowship Church — known for its homeless services — said Beals had come earlier that day to have one of his jackets cleaned and in fact was expected to return later that night.
"It was a real cold night. It snowed. He came down before the (church's) Thursday night dinner, left his jacket to wash, did not come back, got drunk and died," said Morrill.
Morrill described Beals as "a nice guy" and "a real sweetheart" who would drop by the church from time to time but did not come a lot because he would guard the homeless camps while the other transients came to dinner. Beals would wait for them to bring food back on their return.
