Grandma, I miss you alot today! I am sitting here thinking about how hard the holidays are going to be without you! This will be the first birthday I celebrate and won't be getting a phone call that starts out "Sarah Margaret, it's Grandma" and for that I am very sad!
Lando is doing really well. He broke his ankle in August and was out of soccer for a few weeks. He is playing soccer with Coach Andy's kids again. Andy's family is doing really well. It is almost the 1 year aniversary of his death. We were at your house when we found out last year. Shelly was here and we were over for dinner! I miss coming over for dinner, I miss your sugar cookies, I miss your humor, your laugh and your strengh! I miss you so much! Love you, SARAH MARGARET

Hi Gramma, I am really missing you right now. It was pretty hard on your birthday and the days preceding. I just keep hearing you behind me saying "get over it, life goes on".....I really miss you. Kassi is getting ready for high school and KC is getting ready for kindergarten. I so wish you were here so you can laugh at the things KC is doing now. Last month he broke his arm at daycare cuz his best friend dared him to jump off the lader to the monkey bars and yesterday a little girl at the daycare told him to cut his hair so he did. Gramma I can hear you laughing but man I don't know how I'm gonna handle this little guy. Kassi of course is being a teen and I know you remember those days. Mom and Dad are in Windover having a good time. Rosie bought a really cute mobile in a park that is really nice. You would love it gramma and she is so happy. Uncle Joe and Uncle Jim and Geri are doing good I think....I haven't been very good at keeping in contact with people. Lando has been gone with his dad for awhile so Sarah has been lonely a bit. Bimmer and Tracey I think are good. I love her gramma, not sure how she puts up with him...just kidding. Aaron and Amy are doing good in your house. I haven't been over there in a while but they seem to be doing good. Mckennzie and Walter had a bump in the road but I think they are doing ok now. I haven't talked to Ezra and Kelly but I hear they are doing ok. Well that's about it for the day gramma, I just miss you and felt impelled to get on here and write to you. I love you gramma Greene!

Hello Ellyne,
Well, we made it through another Mother's Day! It was nice to spend the day with the Berns and hearing all the wonderful stories many of them about you & Jim. Things seem to be putting along at a fairly even pace, we have some big days coming up and I pray for the strength to make it through them with grace. We miss you oodles, when Joe got off the phone last night with Aaron he immediately dialed you to share the good news...that was a tough one, I never know what to say. I know that you give each of them strength and your love clearly resides, big hugs from here to there! T

Hey ma,
Well it's been two months now and words can't explain how much I am missing you. Mothers day was bizarre to say the least without you. Trish and I spent the day at Jamie Berns for his mothers day barbeque and we had a great time. He said I could borrow his mom for the day which was very thoughtful and nice. I've got to say no one can replace you though. I know you would have a hard time believing this but I sure miss your phone calls checking in on me on how my day went. Whether I had any leads in realestate, selling roofs or just what the hell I've been up to in my day, week or however long it had been since I've talked to you. I apologize for the lack of effort I put into involving you in my daily life. I'm kind of weird that way which I think you new. I think you know how much I truely loved you. On a lighter note you would be so proud of Amy and Aaron. Today they signed the papers to purchase your house. It's theirs now. They along with everyone else in the family are so excited. I am so proud of them. They have big plans for the place and are already fixing it up (not that there is much to do the way you took care or it). You and dad are in my thoughts it seems like every minute of the day anymore and I miss you both so much. But as you would say, get the hell over it and move on and that I shall do. So I choose to do that with both of you and all the great memories of all the gatherings, holidays, and the whole family and extended families in my heart. Ya all made some wonderful children and I thank you.
Love you all & peace out

Happy Mother's Day Gramma! We all miss you so much and it's a pretty hard day for all of us. But I'm sure we all know that we are so blessed to have had you in our lives for as long as we did. You influenced all of us in so many ways. I hope that I can be half the mom or gramma that you were! I love you Gramma!

Hi G'ma....just thought I would swing by and check in. I wanted to thank you so much for all the beautiful things now that we now have in our home, I can't walk across the carpet without thinking of you! I am doing my best to keep it super clean because I want to have it FOREVER! (I may need a little help with that...wink, wink!) Speaking of help, Aaron is trying to buy the house...all looks good but don't let him get over his head or anything! Have spoke with Brandon recently so I guess I better call him and send Jenna a "howdy" on MyFace...Geez I sure hope Mark doesn't have to ship out to Iraq, how awesome would that be for Chelle & her peeps! Joni got a tattoo BTW...I think she waited until you couldn't giver her grief about it LOL, it says "PEACE" in scroll and it looks beautiful! Hmmmm... what else have I not been able to tell you over the phone?? Rayce Malachi is getting bigger by the day and is fussy as all get out! I definitely think I will get him overnight a lot sooner than I did Jessie...ha ha! Haleigh should be here any minute now and Boo still has a week or so before Taylor is born. Babies everywhere! So Joe is back with the state...I'm relieved although I don't think he's exactly in love with the idea, we'll see I know he is still thinking of you so much, we miss you and miss your nightly check in calls...when the home phone rings I instantly think it's you... Well, I guess I should get back to work...I just wanted to touch bases and let you know that we treasure every moment we had with you and sure enjoy sharing them with each other...I'll hug the boyz for you and keep an eye on them...Big Hugs

To the family:
I love you guys sooooo much and it is hard for me to see the hurt in your eyes and the sadness in your hearts. Mom was an amazing lady...I loved stopping by in the middle of the work day to sit at the table and get caught up on the latest dirt. She knew what everybody was up to and always had her own thoughts and opinions on any given situation, which she did not hold back for even a second...more often than not she was right on the mark! I loved walking in the door and getting either great compliments on how my hair looked that day or getting the "what for" about the color I had dyed my locks...if there was any red in it she would pitch a little fit and remind me that she liked it blonde and that I should dye it back! She was a tremendous support when Malachi passed away, she had a special way of letting me know that how I was feeling was perfectly normal but that I had to suck it up some times and "get over it"! What she was really saying was that I still had a life to live, people to love and work to do and that there is a time and a place to feel the pain, and wallow in my sadness. She was just so good to me! I love that when Joe & I were "on a break" that she would send him over to my my new place with things she wanted me to have or garage sale deals she knew I would need (I'll go ahead and tell ya Joe was not thrilled about this but she didn't exactly give him a choice). She loved and accepted Malachi as her own grandchild and he adored her in return! Before he would leave her house she would call to him to come get some candy to take home with him even though he had already stuffed his pockets for the road. I look into her kitchen and expect to see her leaned over the stove with a cigarette in one hand blowing smoke into the fan and a beer in the other hand...excitedly awaiting the arrival of of her children and granchildren. We had wonderful conversations about her Army wife years, she would tell me about Jim whom I never had the pleasure of meeting, she told me about his passing and how much she missed him. She shared wonderful stories about all of you and I especially enjoyed her vivid memories of Brandon & Aaron as small children and the emmense love and pride she had in them and all of her kids and grandkids. I admired her ability to love each of you so individually for your own special talents. I truly feel that she lives through each of you in the most wonderful ways that you all probably can't even see, that for me looking from the outside in can see so vividly. She was a matriarch to be reckoned with, loving and protecting her brood like a lioness with her cubs. I have learned so much about living, loving and life in the short 10 years I had with her and I treasure every moment of them...Thank you so much for welcoming me into the family I will always be eternally grateful for her and all of you...Forever Hugs...Trish

Well Gramma today is the day that we have to say goodbye and I don't want to. I still can't believe this is real. I'm not going to see private number come up on my phone anymore knowing it is you on the other end and in your sweet voice say "Michelle....It's me Gramma" I'm not going to be able to come over and gossip with you anymore about everyone and anyone. I'm not going to be able to come over and have you tell KC and Kassi that they can have all the chocolate they want out of your candy dish....which by the way was never empty. I love you so much Gramma and am going to miss you sooooo very much. I am so lucky to have had you in my life and to have the great family that you have raised to help me through this rough time. Please watch over Kassi, KC and I and bring us some kisses once in awhile. I love you Gramma Greene and I will always carry you in my heart!!!!

About Ellyne?!, Yes, she was a wonderful person, with a very quick wit, which made everyone laugh. She had a dry sense of humor at times, and made little quiet remarks that were just halarious! She always had a house full of kids, and I was happy that my daughter was acquainted with the Greene's because she stayed there alot of times when we were having family problems. Shelly would stay here too, and Shelly also inherited her Moms wit and helped me get through some tough times. You can see her personality in all of her children. She certainly will be missed.

To Ellyne's Entire Family.
Jim and I are saddened by your loss but our hearts are full that Ellyne is reunited with Jim and with those she so cherished that passed before her.
Her legacy left behind is one of which she can be very proud.
Because Jim and I have more personal contact with three of Ellynes Grandchildren... Joey, Aaron and Brandon, we can see a splendid example of Ellyne's positive impact on these three fine human beings. Her strong influence and constant presence in their lives is the gift she left to each of them and in turn to us.
Our heartfelt sympathy and sincere condolences to all of Ellyne's Children and to those who spent time bathed in the love she so generously gave to each of you and yours.

Rosie and Family, The loss of a Mother is one of the most difficult things we have to face in life, Your Mother was a very special woman that was loved by many. Everytime I saw her she had a smile on her face and was truly a Mother that loved her family and friends. I am so sorry for your loss and I will keep you and Ellyne in my thoughts and prayers.

Heavenly Father,
We remember this day and forever more the life of Ellyne Francis Greene. Though currently afflicted with grief for want of her presence, we look forward with anticipation to that ecstatic day that we rejoin her in Heaven. That day we will joyously embrace Ellyne and all those we have loved and lost. We can remember her when we have the strength to persevere despite adversity. We can remember her when we are shown hospitality and show it to others. Most of all, we remember Ellyne if ever we are so blessed to find friendship and love that outlasts the falling of the very last grain of sand in the hourglass of time that is allotted our earthly vessel. Lord, grant us conviction, compassion and fortitude to live a life such as Ellyne's.

The thing I will always remember about Gramma Greene was that she always made it a point to sit with me and chat whenever I attended any of Sarah's, Rosie's or Jim and Geri's celebrations. She always seemed genuinely interested in how my family was getting along. She was a grand matriarch to many generations of great people. I know she will be greatly missed.

To the family of Ellyne: You don't know me, I am the daughter of Anna Sowl who lives down the block from Ellyne. I met Ellyne several times, the first time when she, my mother, and "the neighborhood girls" came for coffee and cake at our home when my husband and I were in Lacey. "The girls" were on their way to one of their many Saturday "adventures." They all were in great moods, looking forward to getting out and to the garage sales they were about to "hit." It was obvious they enjoyed these drives, lunches, and each other. Vickie,Jolene, Anna and Ellyne - Ellyne will surely be missed. My sincere sympathy to the family. Gertie Vannoy, Fountain Hills, AZ

I treasure the memory that Aunt Ellyne could always make my dad laugh -- not just a little chuckle, but hearty and heart-felt laughs, even through the days when those laughs were few and far between. Our thoughts are with my cousins and the entire family. Let us each be inspired by Aunt Ellyne in our own lives.

Ellyne was certainly an inspiration for me. She welcomed me into her home when things were rough at my own home. She got up at night when Shelley and I would arrive home late and tell us to get something to eat. Then she would ask us about our day and visit with us for awhile before going back to bed. I thought this was so cool that I did the same with my own children. Ellyne was full of personality, and full of love for others. She was always helping someone. She had a fierce love for her children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews. I remember when she called me after my dad died. It was so caring of her. He died an alcoholic and penniless. Not many cared or thought that we'd be as upset as we were. She knew better. She called and told me how sorry she was my dad had passed and wanted to know if she could do anything for me. I told her that her call was enough. I now do the same thing for others. She helped me develope into who I am right now. I'll never hold a candle to how much she served others but I will always carry her in my heart. I will miss her. Love Rhonda

To my cousins and family - Aunt Ellyne was one of a kind. She was so strong even in her final moments with us. I see every bit of her strength in each one of you. She cared about her family, and those little things that make each one of us different. I will be eternally grateful to her and Uncle Jim, and the selfless kindness they showed throughout my life to my family. That kind of love isn’t found every day. Even though she is gone from us now, we will have her forever in the faces, smiles, tears, and laughter of one another, the actions of those she inspired, and the hearts of those she touched. Peace and Love, Jeri Lynn Lentz
