Not sure what to say?

We're sorry to hear of the passing of Dr Joe Greene and his late wife. I was a patient and probably alive from his care and my Grandmother growing up. They thought me how to survive. I have had many miracles and glad to have know him. Steve, I remember all of you and went to Forest Hills in music. My cousin also was employed by your family and she cared for you as her own. May you all remember the Good times....I do♥

Kenny and myself are very sorry to hear of your dad passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family.

Loss of Dr Joe Greene and his late wife, Mrs Mara Greene, is difficult for all who knew them and even more so for the Greene family. Dr & Mrs Greene represent the most admirable, Christian, loving lives which define and are the hallmark of how they lived. The pinnacle of their myriad successes was highlighted by being God's unwavering servants to family, friends and community. Their exemplary lives engendered indescribable goodness. Joy of their lives is truly eternal through God's...

Uncle Joe, I agree with all of the above and more ... You are truly a unique creation of God & I will always remember your humor, warmth and kindness towards others. Uncle Joe Inspired both my brother and me to become physicians, and I specifically went into Family Practice in emulation of his example. I will never forget his wonderful character. His 100 years on this earth is truly a gift from heaven.

My father, B.B. Tarleton, was a self-taught country vet. Dad enjoyed knowing Dr.Greene and they had good times sharing animal care and love of life and nature. Dr. Greene was an inspiration to my dad and to many Marshville area residents. May your family memories and the legacy of your Christian Father and Grandfather give you joy, comfort and peace.

I am on my way to bid farewell to a very well deserving physician and friend. Dr. Joe was that to many, many people. He never tired of learning and doing for the community. To you, the family, I know you will have many good memories of your parents. Love to all of you!!!!

Uncle Joe... Say his name in our home and the stories begin. Love from the Justice household. Prayers for comfort and then celebration of his beautiful life.

I knew Dr. Green and his lovely wife for decades. He was a wonderful man and doctor. I'm so sorry he is gone and I know he will be missed. God blessed him with many years few people reach.
