Her daughters, Sharon and Laura were both with her shortly before her passing. She was born on September 27, 1936 to the late Benjamin Webster and Ruth Webster (Beall).
Beverly was a stay at home mother and substitute teacher until her children were teenagers. She worked at People’s Life Insurance and then Monumental Life in Waldorf, MD from where she retired.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of 23 years, James Graves (2008), grandson James Edward Phipps (2010) and was the last remaining sibling of Dorothy, Jack, Mary Alice, Everett, Marion, Wayne, Donald and Glenn.

Beverly loved music, dancing, spending time with family and friends and was a member of the Moose Lodge for 30 years with her late husband James Graves.
