Richard Greening

Greening, Richard

1916 - 2003

Richard was born in Prince Albert, Sask, August 7, 1916; left us suddenly on October 3, 2003 in Comox. Lovingly remembered by June, his beloved wife for 57 years; children: Matthew (Kate) Greening and Jane (Derek) Wood of New Zealand; grandchildren: Katie, Danny, and Leo; brother Jack and family; and his good friend Charlie Perkins. Richard was a lover of quiet walks and lively talk, good music and books (with a wee dram of single malt at his elbow), his special joy was his family.


“...His life was gentle and the

elements so mixed in him

that Nature might stand up

and say to all the world,

“This was a man!””

In lieu of flowers donations may be made in Richard’s name to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of B.C. and Yukon, P.O. Box 1225, Comox, B.C. V9N 7Z8 with appreciated.
