Les Beasley was the lead singer and manager for the Florida Boys, a Southern Gospel quartet, since 1953. He is said to be one of the pioneers of Gospel Music TV. In 2001, Beasley was honoured at the Grand Ole Gospel Reunion with a "This Is Your Life" Tribute. Charles Waller, the producer, invited family and friends from across the country to tell Beasley's story from their perspective. A special tribute video of the event was created and is now available including both the tribute and special footage of the Florida Boys. Beasley is no longer a member of the group but the group continues to perform.
