Ann Tolleson Beane

January 13, 1938 - January 14, 2026

Ann Tolleson Beane, widow of Reuben Nelson Beane, passed away peacefully on January 14, 2026. A woman of deep and abiding faith, Ann's devotion to her church and community was a defining feature of her life. Wherever she worshiped, she was an active and dedicated member, faithfully serving as a Sunday school teacher to both children and adults for many years.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Reuben Nelson Beane; parents, Jesse Wilson Tolleson and Genevieve Morgan Tolleson; her brother, Raymond Wilson Tolleson ("Buddy"); and her sister, Page Tolleson Faust. She is survived by her sister, Judith Wray Tolleson Clarke (Bruce). She is also survived by her beloved children, Cameron Nelson Beane (Amy), and Karen Beane Foecking (Michael); her seven grandchildren, Caleigh Morgan Beane (Alex), Mackenzie Lynn Beane, Ella Grace Beane, Parker Nelson Beane, Kelsea Elizabeth McCracken (Louis), Julie Michelle Foecking, and Allison Beane Foecking; and her two cherished great-grandchildren, Henry Michael McCracken and Madeline Pearl McCracken. In addition, she leaves behind a host of loving nieces, nephews, and dear friends.

In retirement, Ann delighted in extensive travel and especially treasured the time she spent with her children and grandchildren, creating memories that will be forever cherished.

Friends and family will be received on Friday, January 16th, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Billey's Funeral Home, located at 3801 Augusta Avenue, Richmond, Virginia 23230. A private family service will be held graveside.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Samaritan's Purse, P.O. Box 3000, Boone, North Carolina 28607, or at www.samaritanspurse.org.
