She was a homemaker and a member of First Assembly of God Church in Mountain Home. She loved her sons, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and enjoyed taking care of her family and cooking for them. She also enjoyed traveling, going to church, watching Reverend Charles Stanley’s television programs and listening to Bluegrass gospel music.

The family would like to extend special thanks to Ruth Basty for the care she gave Mrs. Greer.
