I was sorry to hear that Bro. Greene past. I am thinking that his son Steve was a friend at Andrew Lewis High School. I played trumpet with Steve in band. My deepest sympathies are with Brother Greene's family at this time.

To the Greene family, I'm so sorry to hear of Seymour's passing. I've known Seymour for sometime I use to clean for him and I'm very sad. I know he is in a better place now and he will be missed by all who knew him. I last saw him on Saturday morning and I knew he was going to leave us. May God bless each and ever one of us that knew Seymour. He is now with his loving wife Helen that he longed to be with and his other friends and family.

I worked with Seymour at Kroger. He was such a nice man. He was always smiling. He used to dress up like a ghost for Halloween and would dress like a Leprauchan for St Patricks Day. The customers loved him. He is definitely missed here.
