Beverly Ann Green

Beverly Ann Green, of Indianapolis, Indiana, passed away on November 12, 2026, surrounded by her children, in the city where her life began. She was born on August 7, 1936, in Indianapolis, and her long life was marked by devotion to family, steady work, spirited service, and a deep delight in seeing the world.

She was educated at St. John Academy, and over the years built a working life that reflected both capability and adaptability. Beverly began her career in health insurance. While living in Germany, she served as a secretary for an Army Colonel, an experience that placed her in a setting she would remember with particular affection. She later worked at a home health care company, continuing a career shaped by diligence and service.

Beverly also gave generously of herself in her community. She was very active as a Girl Scout Leader in Beech Grove, a role that spoke to her energy, commitment, and willingness to guide and encourage young people.

She embraced travel with enthusiasm and curiosity, enjoying journeys that took her across the world. She visited Ireland, Italy, France, and Thailand, and rode on the Orient Express. Germany held a special place in her heart, remaining her favorite country; she visited both East and West Germany, experiences that reflected her adventurous spirit and her appreciation for history, culture, and discovery.

Above all, Beverly’s life is carried forward in the family she loved.   There was rarely a moment in her grandchildren’s life that she missed.  She is survived by her daughters, Elizabeth (Randy) Green, Rebecca (Mark) Cleary, and Katherine (Larry) Mahurin, and by her sons, Rex ( Patricia) Ralston and John (Wendy) Ralston, grandchildren Daniel Cleary, Jessica Goddard, Kevin Cleary, Rachael Wheeler, Matthew Mahurin, Caleb Mahurin, Jason Lumpford, Mariah Green, Randall Green II, Mallorie Green, Isaac Ralston, Luke Ralston, Patrick Ralston, Peter Ralston, Levi Ralston, Thomas Ralston, Clara Ralston, Samuel Ralston and Elias Ralston , 30 great grandchildren and 1 great great grandchild.  In their lives, and in the memories they hold, her presence endures with warmth and gratitude.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Frank and Nora Voelker; and her brother, Father Lawrence Voelker.
