Not sure what to say?

I asked Laurel the other day, "where would we be today without Judge Greene?" The answer is concerning. Without the Judge's tremendous influence in my life I fear I would not be as successful as I am today. I have so many fond memories, too, and they are all great stories that I love to share with those who wish to hear. I love this great man. Thank you, Judge. Thank you for the amazing life of service you have lived, and for reaching out to me over the past 17 years. It was my...

Kay, Tom, John, and Mary Kay, My thoughts and prayers are with you. Having just recently lost my Dad, I know how you are feeling. I worked with Tom at Greene Callister for many years until he was appointed to the bench. I was Lael's "back up" when she was out of the office due to the fact that I worked for two of Tom's associates - John Beckstead and Russ Hettinger. I loved Tom's sense of humor and his way of looking at the law and life in general. It makes me smile to think of some of...

Kay, Tom, John and Mary Kay, our thoughts and prayers go out to you at this difficult time. As one of Tom's many many "mentees," I want you to know what a profound impact he had on my life and career. He will be sorely missed. Our sincere condolences go to you and your entire family.

Dear Aunt Kay, Beverly and M.J. , and all the Children , My Prayers are with you during this sad time. I feel so blessed to have seen you and Uncle Tom at Lindsay and Lee's wedding. We have many fond memories of Uncle Tom's wonderful personality and how you always made us feel so welcome. Thank you. My heart goes out to you and the many children that are so blessed because you and Uncle Tom made the world a better place. In HIS Love, Patti ( Brigham City)

Dear Kay and Greene Family

There was no Pi Kap in memory that exeeded Tom's loyalty and enthusiam. He shared his many talents -- and made us all the better for it. With his love for his brothers as an example he certainly was a great husband, father grand father and friend.

He made many conributions to us all.

May his memory be eternal

Manny (PKA 1957) and Nan Floor

Thanks for the memories

Kay and The Greene Family,
We love your family. Judge Greene was always such a delight to all of us not so wise junior high boys. We loved him and he loved us, though we didn't deserve it. Kay, you are a light that I will always remember. You kids have it now. Please know that you and your whole family are in our thoughts and prayers.

So very sorry to hear of Tom's passing and my thoughts and prayers are with your entire family. It's been many years since I've seen him, but will never forget his wit and wisdom. He also believed in a young lawyer just out of law school by giving me my first job oh, so many years ago, for which I'm truly grateful. Hoping you are filled with peace and comfort at this very difficult time. If I could blink my eye and be in Salt Lake, I would so much like to be at the funeral to express my...

It was my pleasure to work with Judge Greene through his involvement with the American Bar Association Senior Lawyers Division. We will always cherish his kindness, wisdom and spirit.
