June Greene Obituary
November 10, 1942 - May 30, 2025
Gainesville, Florida - June Mullis Greene passed away on May 30, 2025, after a long illness. She was born in Winston-Salem, NC on Nov. 10, 1942, to Rev. Dwight Bruton Mullis and Macie Price Mullis. June graduated with a degree in English from Queens College in Charlotte. She obtained her teaching certificate and taught English at Piedmont Junior High School for a few years; she was also faculty sponsor of the cheerleading squad. After her marriage to Robert Patterson "Bob" Greene, she stopped teaching and became a homemaker.
June and her sister Sylvia were very close, and even after Sylvia and her husband Haywood moved to Florida June was always ready to lend a sympathetic ear. She was also like a second mother to Haywood and Sylvia's children Lisa and Christopher; she and Bob had no children.
In later years June became an avid mall walker. She enjoyed the socializing as much as the exercise and made many friends.
June was predeceased by her parents, Dwight and Macie Mullis. She is survived by her husband, Robert Greene; her sister, Sylvia Mullis Smith (Haywood), her niece, Lisa Catharine Smith; her nephew, Christopher Clark Smith (Mara); and her first cousin, Linda Bell Helms.
A graveside service will be held on Saturday, June 7, at 11 a.m. at Lakeland Memorial Park in Monroe, NC. All are invited to a luncheon at Hilltop Fish Fare and Steakhouse in Monroe immediately following the service. Arrangements are being handled by McEwen Funeral Home in Mint Hill, NC.
Donations may be made in June's name to the Lewy Body Dementia Association, 912 Killian Hill Road SW, Suite 205, Lilburn, GA 30047, or at their website, www.lbda.org.
The family is very grateful to Vickki Jordan and the sitters of Gifted Hands Companion Care for their loving care of June in the late stages of her illness.
