It is amazing to see how many lives were touched by my mom. She was one of a kind, "the leader of the pack." She lived her life honestly and fully, and was always able to see the good in even the worse situations. Her positive spirit and capacity to love and forgive are lessons she taught us daily through the way she lived her life. She was her own boss to the very end and she did it her way. I am forever proud of her and grateful for every minute we shared. All my love to you forever mom, Love, Marsha

Grandma you will be deeply missed by us all whenever we would see you you would make us smile and you always gave us words of wisdom. You never let anyone down and loved everyone that came into your life. Our girls Shy and Felicity loved you dearly. Seeing you outside having conversations with Shy was the best she was so proud to have you as her great grandma she bragged about you and everything you guys did together even if it was a little thing like sharing chips with you. You will always be loved and you will be missed dearly. A spirit like yours will live on forever. " Your candle burned out long before your legend ever did" in our hearts you were our hero and our legend.
Love you forever,
Shaun,Shannon,Felicity,and Shyanna

To the entire Greenberg family. It's with a heavy heart I write this after hearing the news of your mom's passing. Your mom was the unofficial mayor of Ranger Road. Not only did she find time to look after all of her own kids, she also kept an eye on the rest of us on Ranger Road.
Lots of thoughts & prayers going out to all of you as you mourn the passing, but also celebrate the wonderful times spent with her.
