Nov. 3rd, 1940 – Jan. 12th, 2025
Lifelong Siskiyou County resident, Alvin Roy Besoain, Jr. – better known to his friends and family as “Biff” – passed away on January 12, 2025 at Madrone Hospice House in Yreka.
Biff was born on November 3, 1940 in Yreka to Alvin “Bud” and Pauline (Conrad) Besoain. In his youth, Biff was the typical Siskiyou County boy: he was an outdoorsman, and he played all the sports from basketball to baseball to football. His talent, though, was on the tennis court, where he was a very successful athlete for Fort Jones High School.
