he Cincinnati Enquirer UNION TOWNSHIP Services will be today for a young family killed in a weekend fire at their rural Clermont County home. Marshall Beach 32, his wife, Laurie, 34, and their two daughters, Mara, 5, and Mckenzie, 3, perished in the blaze. Investigators were still trying to determine the cause of the fire, which consumed the two-story home at 4971 Tealtown Road. Mr.

Beach was a groundskeeper for 12 years at the Cincinnati Nature Center, which owned the house. "It's been really hard," Mr. Beach's mother, Linda Reed, said Tuesday as she shared memories of her son, a hard-working man who was always on the job but still found time to cut wood for his parents so they could heat their home. Mrs. Reed described her daughter-in-law as a loving mother who, with the children, often tagged along with Mrs.

Reed on trips to local flea markets. Mrs. Beach was employed for eight years at the Clermont County Juvenile Detention Center, where she cooked meals and helped young inmates with their homework, Mrs. Reed said. The children were regulars at their grandmother's house, often accompanying their father for overnight visits there after Mrs.

Reed had a heart attack six months ago.
