He graduated from Eudora High School in 1971 and worked as a farmer and diesel mechanic. He could fix anything and people from all around would often call him for repairs and mechanical advice. He was the Parkdale Volunteer Fire Department Chief for over 20 years. The center point of his life was God and his church, the First Pentecostal Church of Hamburg. Many people were the recipient of Mr. Greer’s thoughtful generosity. He would often say that “the Lord has blessed me” and when he thought someone was in need, he would step in.
