Beloved father may well still be true.

In which case, "beloved" is not necessarily a qualifier for "husband". That's some clever word play. He's a beloved father...also he's a husband. Nothing really to say about the latter one. Just stating a fact.

The Victorian era had a whole coded obituary system for this kind of thing, e.g. “he was generous with his affections and had a convivial spirit” aka a drunk who cheated on his wife constantly.
