On July 22, 1989, Eugene married Betty Miller, his devoted wife and faithful companion for many years. Eugene was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather whose quiet strength, steadfast values, and unwavering sense of duty left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him.

In addition to his loving wife, Betty, he leaves to cherish his memories, daughter; Anna Jaynes, grandson; Darren Greene II of Fayetteville, NC, great-grandsons; Darren Greene III and John Greene, several nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends who will forever hold him close in their hearts.
