Lucinda "Cindy" Beeler

Lucinda “Cindy” (nee Dreyer) Beeler, 69, on May 19, 2020 at Indianapolis, after a 17-year battle with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP), a rare abdominal cancer. Born in Beech Grove (Indianapolis), she attended St. Mark Catholic School, St. Agnes Academy (1969), and Vincennes University (1971), where she earned her nursing degree. Her career in Indianapolis included surgical nurse for Community Hospitals East and North, Larry Monn, MD, FACS, ASPRS, Inc., and Orthopedics Indianapolis (Ortho Indy). In California, she served as a Registered Nurse in urgent care for Healthcare Partners, Pasadena, during the global SARS outbreak. She was an accomplished scuba diver. She was active in the American Cancer Society, PMPPals, Portland, Oregon’s Hoyt Arboretum, and Master Gardeners. Cindy cultivated deep-rooted friendships, caring for others with heart and encouragement. She inspired many to take bold steps toward further education, career advancement, and personal growth. Mindful, quick-witted, and brilliant, the light of her presence was ever anticipated. Her niblings dubbed her “Aunt Electric” in recognition of her lively personality, her gift for assigning startling nicknames, and her habit of asserting unedited Cindy-isms. Simply stated, to know her was to love her. Cindy married her high school sweetheart, Karl J. Beeler, in 2003. She is survived by Karl and by her siblings, Kenneth C. Dreyer Jr. (Junelle), Christopher J. Dreyer, C.S.C., and Marie C. Koenig (Gary). She was predeceased by her parents, Kenneth Charles Dreyer, Sr. and Elizabeth Lucinda (nee Lutz) Dreyer.
