It is with great sadness that the family of Joseph Greene announce his passing on Saturday, January 21, 2023 at the Chancellor Park Long Term Care Home. He was 80 years of age.
Words cannot express our deep appreciation for the special care and love shown to “Papa Joe” by the entire staff during his time there.
Joseph was born November 29, 1942 to Miriam and Barton Greene of Raleigh, NL, the fifth of eight children. Upon finishing school, Joseph worked in the fishery with his father and brothers. Although the work was hard, those early years held many fond memories. In the early 60s, he went to Goose Bay, Labrador. There he worked for 10 years as a supply clerk with the U.S. Air Force, and there he began his career with Bell Aliant. He retired in 2000. While in Goose Bay he met, fell in love with, and married Evelyn, his wife of 59 years, and their only child Cheryl was born.
The greatest and most important event of Joseph’s life happened when he committed his life to Christ from his hospital bed in July 2021. He was prepared and ready for this day. Jesus said “I am the resurrection and the Life. He that believeth in me tho’ he were dead, yet shall he live.”
Joseph loved puttering around the garden, collecting coins, all things western, movies, books, and music. He loved animals especially cats. He loved company, visitors to his home and bedside, meals around the table and playing games. He loved watching the Blue Jays and Team Gushue. Joseph did not play sports but he was a champion dart player winning many trophies. His greatest love was his family, whom he spoke of every day until he couldn’t speak anymore.
Leaving to mourn with many precious memories his wife Evelyn, daughter Cheryl (Stephen Wiseman), grandsons Dustin and Aaron (Brittany), granddaughter Rachel (Stephen Kettle), and precious great-grandson Theodore (Teddy), brothers George (Kizzie), and Freeman, sisters Melina, Belinda, and Maisie (Richard), sister in law Irene, many nieces, nephews, and large circle of extended family and friends.
Predeceased by his parents Miriam and Barton Greene, parents-in-law Alfreda and Roland Hynes, sister Ida, brother Lester, sister-in-law Barbara, and brothers-in-law Stanley Dawe and John Andris.
Visitation will take place at Carnell’s Funeral Home, 329 Freshwater Road, on Monday, January 23, 2023 from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. Funeral service will be held from the Carnell Memorial Chapel on Tuesday, January 24, 2023 at 1 p.m. Joseph will be laid to rest awaiting the resurrection in the Anglican Cemetery, Kenmount Road.
