She was a loving mother, housewife, and wonderful cook and made tasty, buttermilk sheet cakes. She took care of many children in her life.

Patsy was loved by all and loved all. She will be dearly missed.

Patsy was preceded in death by her father and mother, Edward and Lucille Stanger; sister, Laverna Arrwood; and husband of 42 years, Roy Greene.

She is survived by her children, Russell (Brenda) Greene, and Ruth (Mike) Turner of Limestone; grandchildren, Candace Hall and Joey Scott; and great-grandchildren, Madlina and Alex Patai, Christyana and Roy Scott; and one great, great-grandchild, Ezra Scott.

David and I are so sorry to hear of Patsy's passing. She was a dear friend and such a lovely lady. We always enjoyed going to hear country music and talking about gardening and flowers. She will be greatly missed by us. Prayers for the family.
