Greene, Gary Lyle (14 JAN 1942 - 18 MAR 2018)

Gary Lyle Greene, 76, long-time resident of Cadott, and most recently of Chippewa Falls, passed away peacefully Sunday, March 18, 2018, at Mayo Clinic Health System with his family by his side.

Gary was born Jan. 14, 1942, to Arthur and Inga (Emerson) Greene. He was united in marriage to Nancy Bruhn Oct. 9, 1965, at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Cadott.

After retiring from Pactiv, he found time for his many hobbies. Gary will be remembered for creating beautiful quilts, colorful flower gardens, his famous fleece mittens, but mostly, his love for his family. He enjoyed visiting with his family and friends over a game of cards or a cup of coffee. He was a warm-hearted and compassionate man who will be missed by many.

He is survived by his wife – Nancy, of 52 years; daughter – Michelle Thelen (Tim Jones); grandchildren – Tyler Thelen, Brittney Thelen (Alex Quinnell) and Alexis King; brothers – Jack Greene and Douglas (Butch) Greene; sisters – Marlis Bahling, Donna (Tom) Haas and Nancy (Willie) Luedtke; sisters-in-law – Bernice Greene and Shirley Greene; and many extended family members.

He was preceded in death by his brothers – Lee Greene, Glenn Greene and Wayne Greene; sisters – Doris Christorf and Ann Hakes; brothers-in-law, Don Christorf and Vergil Hakes; sisters-in-law – Roseanne Greene, Loretta Greene and Karen Greene.

A celebration of life will be held at noon, Saturday, March 24, 2018, at Big Drywood Lutheran Church in Cadott, with Pastor Lucy Schottelkorb officiating. Interment will be in the Brooklawn Cemetery in Cadott at a later date.

A memorial visitation will be held from 10 a.m., until the time of service Saturday, at the church.
