Charlie MacNeil, SASS #48580 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Greeenriver was another of those "friends I've never met face to face". I've had the pleasure of writing stories with him on the Wire and elsewhere, and of corresponding with him when I started moving over to the smoky side of SASS. He was a gentleman through and through and he will be sorely missed by all who knew him by whatever means... My prayers go up for Miss JoAnne and all his family and friends...

He was a great friend to many and can never be replaced. What you saw was what you got. There was no hidden agenda to this Man among Men. Prayers, Up!

Snakebite Dust SASS 75484 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I never had the pleasure to meet Greenriver, but could tell by his posts on the wire that he is a fine man and incredible person. Strange that I never met him, but know of his battle with Cancer and the news of his passing brings tears to my eyes. God Bless Greenriver and peace be with his family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunblade SASS #10206 Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Sad to hear this although I never met Greenriver. I remember reading his posts when he first learned of his illness. I was deeply moved by his courage and also by the outpouring of support and concern by the members of this board. In the movie Broken Trail, Robert Duvall said to his nephew (played by Thomas Hayden Church) "Never use money to measure wealth, son." I think this man was weathly with friends and loved ones...may he rest in peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footloose 1797L Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 Some where in Kansas Joanne reached us this morning to let us know about Greeenriver's passing. I almost had to pull over for awhile. Heee is one of the few real friends I will ever admit to. Heee would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it, and a great partner to ride the river with. He will be sorely missed. Our thoughts and prayers will be with Joanne and his family. Footloose & FancyFree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Willy Dunkum, SASS # 61027 Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 I am so sorry to hear of this. I had only met him once at St Judes last year and we chatted a couple times privately online some time ago when he found out he had cancer. My condolences to his wife Joanne and to the family and friends who meant so much to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EE Taft Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Greeenriver was kind enough to share some of his stories (which I hold to be true ) with me a few times at St. Jude's. He was as y'all say, nothing hidden and straight forward. He was a kind man and I will always remember the day he told me some of his tales and then shook hands with Mama Taft in such a gentlemanly way. His family stories and her family stories are not all that different. I'm saddened to see him go. He offered once to pour me a shot of Crown and drink with him.......I didn't as I was working at that shoot.......I wish I had now.

Bison Bud Posted June 4, 2011 Share Posted June 4, 2011 Sad news indeed! I never met the man face to face, but he went out of his way a couple years back to send me a magazine article on a subject I asked about on the wire, since then we had a number of conversations both on and off the wire and I feel like we were friends indeed. My sincere condolences to his family and close friends, we're all going to miss him. Man I hate the "C" word! Go with God Cowboy, you set a fine example here.
