Hall-of-Famer Paul Beiting Sr., devoted to baseball
Paul Beiting Sr. devoted much of his life to baseball, and though he was a diehard Cincinnati Reds fan, he directed most of his energy toward rooting for whatever Knothole Baseball team one of his 15 grandchildren was playing on.
Mr. Beiting, 71, died Sunday afternoon at St. Luke Hospital East, Fort Thomas. Born in Cold Spring, the union carpenter had lived in Bellevue for more than 30 years.

He coached in the youth league for 18 years, Mrs. Roderick said, and also served on the board of trustees for Youth, Inc. "He loved kids. His grandchildren were the center of his world, " said Mrs. Roderick.
He also remained a passionate Reds fan, even during this, one of their worst seasons. "He never gave up hope, " his daughter said. "He stuck with them, even this year."
A Korean War veteran of the Army, Mr. Beiting was a member of Lawler-Hanlon VFW Post No. 5662.
